Cool Site ::: tom.photo

Ok. I don't understand much of the text, but there are some cool things going on here. First of all there is the home page that is more like a "Blog" than a home page. Typical top navigation makes it intuitive, and it sits right below a very nice header graphic. They are small snippets from his images and all coded in color for the different areas of the site.

The pages are very simple to view, but I do wish the site were not 'framed' but set in CSS (standards) as it would lose the mid-scroll and allow for the SE's to find the site and for me to bookmark an inner page. Not a big deal, but worth considering when you are designing a site.

The portfolio area has groups of images from his shoots. Instead of seeing only one image of a model, he posts many from the shoot. This makes it easy to see how he 'works' a shoot and gets a lot of images in a given time frame. I also like the 'blog' feel to the portfolio.

Simplicity and elegance. BTW: Adult themes - this may not be work safe.
