Peter's first clarinet concert

Few days ago Peter and his classmates made their first public appearance with clarinets at Dale school band concert in Medfield high school auditorium. While one can not call it stellar performance and tunes were pretty basic, I was surprised how much progress kids made over course of two and a half months.

Full photo gallery can be seen at Peter clarinet concert

www.alexmoiseyev.com is up and running using new Smugmug engine

When smugmug.com rolled out its change from a great hosting engine to even better one, I was quite skeptical - you know, don't fix what isn't broken, don't run from good to better and so on.
I was right to a high degree - even though new customisation features supposed to be more powerful and make site design and maintenance significantly easier, at the very least all customizations and tune-ups I have made to my site based on old engine immediately stopped working.
After initial frustration has worn out, I decided to give new engine a try. Surprisingly enough, restoring most of original appearance and behavior was not as difficult as initial implementation of the site - I do not know if it because of my accumulated experience or new engine is indeed easier to tune.
Of course, few nice customizations solely depending on javascript were gone irreversibly, because new site does not allow custom scripts. But some of new features, like ability to integrate feeds and place custom html widgets nearly made it up.
So, after few evenings of busy work I was finally able to turn the switch and let new version of my site to go wild - enjoy. www.alexmoiseyev.com

Peter and Esther at Boston Ballroom Conference and Competition

2013 Boston Ballroom CC. Peter and Esther. - YouTube
Last Sunday Peter and Esther has competed at Boston Ballroom Conference and Competition at Park Plaza Hotel in Boston. It was their first time in Standard categories and first time in Latin gold categories. While half of the hits were uncontested and they got "first and only" place, in one latin gold category they actually did compete and got 3 first places out of four - having two pretty strong and lore experienced couples against them.
Standard was a bit less successful, but they still got first place for tango.
Photos will be posted on www.alexmoiseyev.com soon, so far enjoy the video.

Fully redesigned "family galleries" page on my photo site

Today I finally found nice solution for "family galleries" page - now it features shortcut to all family galeries and small subset of recently updated/sticky galleries that are easy to select and/or change. Solution is based on relatively new "sharegroup" feature provided by Smugmug. Now I hope family and friends will have to jump through fewer hoops to find recent updates relevant for them.
