It looks really nice Sandy - I like the layout and ease of operation. I didn't go back and make sure, but I believe in the Landscape section you have one image in there twice. Very nice site - you should feel very satisfied.

Nice site, Sandy. You do have some duplicate images, at least in the Avian display. And I urge you to give viewers the ability to turn the home page music off; that can be important for those of us who are bandwidth challenged.
Thanks, everyone - much appreciated! - duplicates being removed, typos corrected, and will find out how to turn music off!

Sandy,
That's an excellent Zenfolio site you have put together. You have an outstanding body of work! I never realized until of course it can be seen all in one place. Beautiful work.
Zenfolio looks like a great option for those wanting to set up a website. I like the simplicity of it - or at least the options you have chosen. I would agree with others about the music. I would default off and let folks turn it on if they choose. The only other suggestion would be to change the name of the link "All My Photos." To me that sounds a little like it's a Flikr account to just a bunch of photos. Could be anything, your pets, family re-unions, etc. Of course just my opinion , but how about something as simple as "Galleries" or "Portfolios" or Even "Image Galleries" or something along those lines. Just a thought.

Great gallery, especially your Avian photos. I did notice that in the Avian galley the image "Western Grebe with Crab" it is actually a Clark's Grebe because the black on the head is above the eye where on a Western Grebe the black on the head surrounds the eye. They look very similar. The Clark's Grebe is actually much more rare than the Western so you saw a rare bird and didn't even know it!
Edit:
I just noticed on the last page of your Avian Gallery the second "Western Grebe" photo is also a Clark's Grebe.

Nice looking site, great body of work, easy to navigate. I agree with including a mute option!

Fantastic website Sandy! Congratulations and best of luck.
BTW - There is a mute option on Zenfolio. If you scroll over the slide show, you will see a speaker. The viewer can click on the speaker to turn the music on or off. Though I tend to like to listen to music when I look at slide shows on peoples websites...... but that is just me.
