To my eye, it's not entirely the OP's fault. He seems to be following a current trend, one I happen to dislike intensly, being:

- Huge headers
- Huge images
- Huge whitespace
- Huge line spacing
- Huge everything else....
- Tiny text in a light-grey color

The last point is not really true on this particular site, but it is for many others. Everything is huge and in-your-face, except for the text itself. Me, having poor eyesight, need to upscale the text to be able to read it, and even select it to get a white text on blue background, so I at least have some contrast. (I have seen sites that have text which is so light that it utterly disappears on many not-so-great monitors, which is, in my eyes, ridiculous.)

You can imagine what happens:
- Either I enlarge the text only, breaking the entire site layout.
- I enlarge everything, making the huge parts gargantuan.

In short, many sites are just wasting huge amounts of space, either by leaving it white, or using huge images that are overly big in proportion to the text.
