Hi Mark, I thought these shots were absolutely captivating. Two comments: First, the results are superb but I wondered why you didn't just use black and white film? Second, I found the site difficult to navigate as the lower bar with the thumbnails changed length according to whether the p

I'm sure the pics are nice. Having to deal with flash and all the fancy stuff you've put into the site makes it slow to load on a dialup connection and difficult to navigate. What's the point of all the fancy frills and the bells and whistles just to show a few pictures? They do not enhance this
