I threw in a slide show of my nature photography on my wedding business site. I've picked up at least a couple of extra weddings showing off some of these images as a linked gallery, but decided to give the slide show route a shot.
The point of posting the link here is for some feedback.
Is it too slow to load?
Is it too long?
Are the slides going by too fast?
Should I break it down into smaller chunks?

I think maybe you need to add about a second to each shot. I just take in the whole scene and then its gone. Pretty cool though.

It looks great, Merle.. I agree with Eric about adding just a little more time added to each one. I enjoyed seeing it this morning when I got to the office..

OK, I deleted enough from the show to add 1/2 second to each slide. Not much, I know, but the show is already nearly 7 minutes long. Also did a touch of color correcting and eliminated the "Other" category.

Real nice, Mearle, it might still be smidge too fast but I could go for it as it is. You have a lot of real nice shots in there.

There are 121 different images in that slide show. All except one were taken with film, mostly Kodachrome 25 and Velvia 50.

The speed seems about right now. Nice shots, especially the flora.

I am so impressed with the slideshow Mearle - Wow those are unbelievable images - great job ! I wish I could see some captions of where they were taken !

This winter when I have much more time, I'll link to a PrintRoom.com gallery for print sales, and add captions at that point.
Kevin, your own slide shows aren't too shabby either.
