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? <g> Second, I found the site difficult to navigate as the lower bar with the thumbnails changed length according to whether the picture selected was in landscape or portrait format. This was slightly disconcerting. If the lower bar could remain at the same width as it is when viewing the panoramas, and not change, that would be best. The images would also be better displayed centred on the page than alighned to the left. But a very clever presentation, nevertheless. And the images are simply beautiful! Who says film is dead? Not you, and not me too!
