Photos from our 2005 trip to Bangkok, Turkey, Syria, Jordan & Israel have finally been published.  Please take a look here.

We have created a new home page to work with the recently new photo slider menu.

The photo viewer is based on the JQuery Cycle Plugin with a small piece of additional code to display the photo name and gallery link (view source if you are interested in how this is done).

Also used on the page is the JQuery Corner plugin which provides a simple method to put round corners on page items.
