Thank you Maria. Night photography is really no different. You should just take your camera outside of your house at night, set it on something, point it at a lit window and play with the shutter speed until you like the way the scene presents itself Night photography in a nut shell - keep it steady and be patient.

Browsing through some Wordpress themes for a friend's website, came across the demos you linked. Both of them are different demos of the same theme - as such, their functionality will be exactly the same/interchangeable so it all comes down to what you prefer visually

I loved my 10-20; the original more than the faster version. Distortion is manageable. In fact, in comparison to the new ff kit that is not ultra wide, it's fantastic. Colors/rendering is beautiful. My copy is very sharp. If I was you I would try yourself. No one can tell you what you like All we can do is recommend. I find lenses to be very 'personal'.

I too prefer the second one, but only marginally.
There may be a setting somewhere to not allow "right click" on images to stop people being able to just download them. I use Koken for displaying photos on my website, and that certainly has that option.
Unfortunately that doesn't stop anyone but the most lazy of people. You can simply save the whole webpage to your pc, and with it, all the art assets. Every school kid out there knows it nowadays. They where born with PCs in their hands haha. It's still worth doing, easy enough with a plugin, but it only eliminates tiny bit of the risk.

Visually, the second one more interesting, however; if you are planning to sell your work, you may want to make sure you can control image sizes. When you click on an image on the homepage, a full screen view of the photograph opens. Bit counter productive as anyone will have access to the high resolution version of your work. It looks fantastic but doesn't work very well for business I'd check with the template author if it's easy to modify and if it can be done via a Wordpress child theme, not the core; else you're risking having to do modification on every theme update and that gets annoying very fast

I do like both of them. They are clean and elegant.

Thank you John, Peter and Tim. Turned out to be a worthy evening drive. Surprising how deserted the area was. A little fog and everyone runs away
