Out and In

Along with the refresh of the main photoblog, Photine, I have made some changes to my secondary blogs. I have closed The Bayou City Wanderer. I feel that my photoblog is refocused with the move to Pixyblog, but the Wanderer did not fit in and was a little redundant since it featured photos already on Flickr.

I have started a new photoblog focusing on my film work. Plastic Streak will showcase my work with my toy cameras. You can easily move between Photine and Plastic Streak with navigation tabs at the top of each website.

Photoblog Refresh

Photine.net has a new look and a new home. Starting in September the photoblog began hosting with Pixyblog. Pixyblog is a hosted photoblog management system. It is highly customizable and very polished. I am very excited about the future.

The Bayou City Wanderer

I have started a companion photoblog to Photine.net. I think the about page describes it best:

I love to take photos and I love Houston. I especially love taking photos OF Houston. In fact I take so many photos of Houston that my website, Photine.net, can't hold them all. Over there I share my very best photos from places and events around the city. I tell one story each week with new photos posted Monday through Friday.

But what about all the other events and places that I photograph? The other stories that also make up my wanderings throughout the Bayou City? Those now have a home here at The Bayou City Wanderer. This is a companion site to Photine.net. Photos and themes that would normally be relegated to the archives of Flickr now have a chance to be seen.

I'm not exactly sure how I will decide which photo shoots go to which site, but I imagine that they will each find their own voice and I hope they will complement each other. I hope you will visit me here, there and everywhere. You can find a link to my online spaces on my about page.

Marking a journey

I need a place to keep track of the recognitions that Photine has received because I'm very forgetful!
