I agree with Dan's comments.  Very nice indeed!

I do have one general suggestion for everyone hosting Web sites with
photos, though.  Please try to limit the total number of images on
one page, unless they are greyscale.

Why?

Anyone who is using a computer with an 8-bit display (and that includes
tens of thousands of Sun Microsystems and other workstations that myself
and my colleagues use on our desks at work every day) can only display
256 colors at a time.  When a page contains multiple images, the browser
must divide that already-limited color space amongst ALL the images on
the page.  This makes for a compromise that hurts all of the images,
unless they share a common palette (possible with computer-generated
images).

Thanks.
