@Cindy, I'm not a smugmug user (unless you count flickr haha). I use domain hosting and Piwigo open source photo gallery software. I've had this site running for about twenty years, which I started as a place for family photo sharing... Started using it more heavily for my photography hobby as well maybe six or seven years ago, primarily because I decided that flickr was going to only be for my "better" photos. My thinking was that 99% of my photos are not very good so that 1% to flickr would work out nicely. Shortly after making the switch though I realized that 100% of my photos are not very good, and I struggled a lot with deciding which photos should go to flickr... So posted to flickr less and less over time and now it's an extremely rare occurrence, especially because I so rarely make photos that I think are worthy. So rare that I don't even consider it anymore. I do get tempted sometimes out of boredom to switch back to flickr, but then I'd have to pay for it, and I already pay for my domain hosting service (about the same price as the flickr membership).

I love this!
You're mastery of light and shadows never cease to amaze. Rich, dense color and well composed with all the elements coming together beautifully. Kudos to your workout. I need to get back to the gym.

good use of the arch. nicely composed. Like the framing here. I'm thinking of migrating to smugmug ... do you use it for privacy?

This is superb! Love the shadow...perfectly captured. Man in the arena sign is a good inclusion too.

I lost a few calories just reading (and sweating about) your exercise programme. This has great pop, and LOL your wilted shadow.

Interesting find. The antithesis of organic sculpture. It will no doubt look better and better as it ages.

Some flirting and a 360 degrees rollie across the floor - to tell you not to lock her in the garage again.

A very painful way to get a picture! Would not have guessed this was a Roosevelt verse, but that aside, your shadow is certainly the highlight, especially against the red cages, and reminds me of "The Thinker" by Rodin. Handy having the green bush too.

I did read the full size poster. Kinda long and speech like.
I like the shadow play in the very empty looking room.
