Website revamped again
Drop the music (or at least ask first) and I'd ever find it bordering on the acceptable.
That sliding menu system just doesn't work very well. If you move the mouse to the right, over landscape pics, then back to natural pics, it slides another menu under the mouse cursor, then moves to that one. Irritating in the extreme.
Pics look good though.

PS with reference to Bressons work and mine they are not meant for comparison I never said that I just used a phrase he has quoted between the photographer and clients that all
Cheers anyway
Good Points and noted

I'm sorry, Pete, but without puntuation marks what you have written is unintelligible. Its 'Cartier-Bresson'.

My only complaint would be along the same lines as the others above; ditch the music! It's annoying and a waste of bandwidth. For every (potential) customer who finds it a pleasant backdrop I can pretty much guarantee there'll be 10 who find it a complete turn-off.
Good overall effort though - your photography has come on in leaps and bounds!

Overall I think your images are excellent - sharp and vibrant and capture the moment I'm sure any prospective clients would be impressed.
The initial image on the client page of the girl in the pink outfit is sharp on the eyes but I wouldn't have softened her hair like that over her right eye. And the rest of the fuzz on her dress is way to much for me - just a little softness would have been cool. I'm not a major fan of spot colour on B&W images and you've quite a few of them. A few more candids of kids and friends would have been good - I think wedding 2 had nearly all of the B&G - showing how you capture the day would be better.
Just one point on the site itself - all OK and looking good except I cant click on the links to the manicure and cake maker links.
Pete, the phrase

Thanks AJ have amended the typo

I have tried the links and it appears that if you use your mouse center roller to scroll down the the bar to read the text up and down then try the links they dont work work. However if you just point to the the little triangle to scroll down the text, then point to the links they do work "Strange"
I will look into it but thanks for pointing it out

I have just made serveral changes to my flash based website. I am aware many of you don't like flash slide shows with music etc.. but what I am looking for is opinions on the photos and how they look on your PC monitors.
I have put a dark background to the site as I think it makes the images stand out a bit more.
Let me know anyway
