It looks great, Tomas.
A couple of suggestions:
- It might add interest if you give descriptive names to the images, rather than just letters and numbers (something like Red Fox instead of MZO0022)
- This may just be my personal taste, but I found it distracting when I have my cursor on Next while displaying an image, and up pops an insert of the next image.
You have many beautiful images. Nice work!

I like your site layout and structure. I prefer the look of clean sites like yours. One suggestion would be to change the font colour for your home page, because the black text blends into the dark tones of the water. Something that may be beyond your control, but the download is very slow. Good luck with the site. Cheers.

Tomas,
The site is simple, nicely layed out and easy to navigate. I have a few observations and suggestions:
- Keep the font size the same on your "about me" page and I would consider reducing the font and bold type face.
- you have "this is a brand new gallery with no photos" on two of the pages. I think it's assumed that when you're on an "about" or "contact" page that you're not in a gallery and I would recommend removing that text.
- It's great to have a shopping cart feature, but I didn't see anyway to actually order anything. There's no information on pricing, choices, etc. There's a shopping cart link and page, but no way to put something in the cart. At least as far as I could see.
- Unless you have products to offer in the "store" like calendars, screen savers, books, mouse pads or whatever, I would change that out for a "Prints" link that provides info, pricing and instructions on how to order prints.
Hope this helps. You're off to a good start.
