10th September 2005 Official launch date for www.davidrenfrey.com 10th September 2005 So far there have been 3 variations. The first site became to unwieldy after it took on a life of its own and grew to an unmanageable number of complexed inter relating pages. The second site became a cut down version and introduced the now infamous horizontal page. Which artistically looked the part only it was always easier to scroll down then across a major culling of pages took place only the site lost much of its written content and probably also its character. So on the 12th June 2008 the 3rd revamp was launched with vertical pages replacing the horizontal ones with a better picture to page ratio and hopefully an improved all over look.
July 2008 Last up date 25th July 2008 The new index page ( Opening page ) is slowly taking shape and 5 Pages have been added to the Music Gallery. Last update 16th July 2008 Mr Bones and Jimm Zombie photos have been added to the music section. The Acknowledgements page has been up dated. Keira May and KatieJane Garside photos have been added to the Portrait section. The opening page should now read David Renfrey instead of Index_Page Last up date 7th July 2008 I have rearranged the Music Index Page into categories. The Music Gallery represents chosen photos of various bands and musicians taken from differing eras over the years that I have had the pleasure and good fortune to cover. The " Current Section " speaks for itself and these are photos taken during 2008.The " Archive Section " represents a selection of bands that I have photographed in past years and the " Singer Songwriter Section " is there to give coverage and support to musicians that fall outside of the mainstream music industry. Again just to say that for various reasons not all of the bands that I have photographed make it to these web pages. Kim Garrsion's album launch date has been put back to an undisclosed date for the summer 2008. Last up date 3rd July 2008 Two new pages have been added these are comments on my photos posted on various web sites or sent to me in personal e-mails. . Go to the Links Page and locate Photo Comments. Click on that photo or sentence. Simple. The Media Related Page has been relocated to the Venues Page there is a direct link from there. I will be adding more comments pages at a later date
August 2008 Last up date 18th Aug 2008 The Gutter Twins and Carina Round gig photos have been added to the Music section.
