It's a shame that they've buried the featured photographer in the new design, but big congrats to Christian (and to his lovely wife who models so beautifully in their idyllic settings). I hope buyers see the photo landing page more than contributors do :)

Congrats Christian.. I know you worked hard to deserve that.. I'm curious if you feel it was worth the move for you to go exclusive?

Thanks everyone!  :)
It was a nice surprise to find out about that. Yeah, too bad about it not being on the front page anymore. That's ok though, it's nice to get any kind of recognition amongst the mob of contributors.

@tubed
No regrets, I'm one of the few happy exclusives at this point, it was a smart move for me. Definitely not happy about the site being a mess right now though.

I do graphic design for several cruise lines and have purchased many of your absolutely gorgeous images. And that beautiful model is your wife? You are one very lucky and talented man.
