looks nice, although I think te overall heigh o the website may be a recurring issue with some.... with the navigation bar at the bottom of the layout, it took me a while to find on a laptop, which is what most people might be working on... or a similar resolution, at least.

Fantastic photos though, I really enjoyed flipping through the pics!
It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye

I really like the photographs!

The layout was uncomfortable with the horizontal scrolling, and I think the images, loading all at once, are too large making the loading very slow. It would be better to use thumbnails and let the user decide when/if they want to load the full-size images.

The problem is not so much the resolution but the filesize (they are not compressed enough).

995x666 and 600k

600x400 and 45k

Bryan, I save my jpg's in Photoshop as 60% quality... the difference is next to impossible to notice and the size reduction is significant. Your 600k image could be 60-80k and look identical if you use the right compression. Then your page would load 10 times faster and you'd use 10 times less bandwidth.

Beautiful photos though!
