Well, my new astrophotography website is up and running and just about finished. Just a few more pages to flesh out in the next week or so.

Enjoy!

I agree. Any time I open a webpage with music, the first thing I do is close it asap, or turn my speakers off if it's really important.

Wow, a lot of great information on there! I don't know anything about astrophotography, but it still makes interesting reading. And it goes without saying the images are awesome. I agree the Flash intro is a bit cheesy, but I think it's actually pretty bearable compared to the average flash site ill

yeah, i've been wrestling with the final decision on what to do with the flash - haven't made a final decision yet. I did keep it to an absolute minimum, and also have all the links and menus load immediately so you don't have to wait for any intros.

You've got some good stuff there, but as other people have said, music and flash are annoying. Flash should be avoided unless it is absolutely necessary (for animations and videos). Music is unacceptable for anything but a band or movie site.

The Star Trails on the beach had the wrong description under it- it was talking about andromeda and several other things, but the site looks awesome!

Thanks.
I scrapped the music.
I'm still fleshing out the site, so there are some photos that have the default descriptions under them still.
