Shutterbug.nu
The moment I have been waiting for the last six months has finally arrived! Presenting the all new Shutterbug.nu - A Photoenthusiast's Log (or backlog as some of you would call it).
Planning to put up a redesign for the last six months, I was struggling to give a new face to the old photolog. To come up with a radical change in design, I had to go through at least 3 complete redesigns till I was thoroughly satisfied with this one. Minimalistic design is a principle I have always liked in websites. Its the same reason why my weblog sports a simple yet functional look. It doesn't mean one should not have colorful designs and flashy effects. It does mean that design only that much as necessary. You may not necessarily agree with my viewpoint. Which is why you may not even like Shutterbug's design. Fine with me. Why no colors - because I get bored with a particular colour over a period of time. Black, Grey & white are eternal. The design elements are minimalistic, with clear demarcations .
The photolog is arranged in three clear sections - Features, Panoramas and Archives. Features are collections of photos based on one theme or location. Panoramas need no explanation. Archives contain entries posted individually. The entries are sorted by category and date for easy traversal. Another observation you may make are the easy-to-remember URLs. Note that most of the entries have been made pre-dated to their original dates because of the huge backlog (a year's photos) I had with me. I'll try to maintain continuity while posting all future posts.
Most of the photos I have taken till date are using my SLR (Details here). I recently bought the digital camera so photos from the digital camera might increase in the future. This is another reason why my posts aren't and won't be very frequent, say once a day. Photos taken from the SLR (which is my primary camera) do take time for processing and digitizing.
So browse the new photolog and the comments are available for your feedback. Do put in your comments. Enjoy!

Love the new design and love the site and photography in general. I particularly like the pics from Fatehapur Sikri as I saw the eclipse from there in 95 (I think).
