My first set of cards only had the text you see here...but they were glossy black. I won't be doing that again.

These will be printed in flat white.

Are these presentable?

Few thoughts:
- What does the picture add? It hides your business name. It's ok for an RE photographer, but you want people to look at your website, not your card.
- Mirror writing looks a bit silly
- Layout of the back of the card is poor. It's not balanced. I don't like the use of different colored fonts.
- The back should have your business name, maybe your location too.
- Not having your own domain makes you look really unprofessional. Get it and put your portfolio there, and use an email address at that domain.

Overall - start again - content and layout.

Thank you for some real advice.

You're welcome, but you'll find everyone will have a different opinion, of course!
