Working on a redesign of my website, you can see it at www.SOTPStudio.com. If you click on my Facebook link there it will take you to over two hundred pictures for your viewing pleasure.
Still a work in progress but I hope you enjoy it.

One thing that jumps out at me is the page is too wide for my monitor.
Website
Hi Spinner - here are some thoughts. I hope this doesn't seem harsh, but I think there is room for improvement to show off your beautiful shots. I wish you well in the redesign - it's a lot of work!!
Home page is hard to read with the background. The white lettering fades into the lighter green background causing a difficult read (and hard on the eyes).
To see where I'm coming from, here is my site. It doesn't reflect you very well, and I'm not suggesting you use this design, but it does reflect some of the things I've listed above.

I agree with Jo & Steve's comments. I will almost never read the content of a site when the letters are shown over a busy background.
I'm a bit confused by your use of a new URL to enter the site when the URL on the address bar immediately flips to what I assume is your previous URL. If you show a domain name as text it should match that in the address bar.
Using a wide starting point doesn't work for me. I will happily scroll up and down; I will not scroll sideways. Your homepage and contact pages scrolls\ right/left if I don't have the window maximized - and I almost never maximize browser windows.
Once I go to a page other than your homepage I see a static page with no connection to the rest of your site. I recommend placing a consistent menu on every page of your site.

Working on a redesign of my website! Not finished yet, but thanks for the input.

Sorry Spinner - I thought you were asking for input. I may have gotten carried away with my comments.

No problem at all input was needed that's why I posted it unfinished. Doing it myself and needed suggestions as to how it looked to people.
