Needs comments. Absolutely, absolutely needs comments and explanations. Like, why this city section formed as so, why the river is so blue, how the colours express etc etc etc. Otherwise it's just... pictures. Pretty, pointless pictures.

While I agree putting images into context helps.. I don't thunk good art should require a manual on how to appriciate it. Asking why the river is blue seems like a very irrelivant philosophical question that has nothing to do with how good the photo is. Like demanding of someone: "Tell me why this strawberry is red or I will refuse to enjoy eating it!"

Ouch no. I was writing that on the buss on my impossibly difficult touchscreen keyboard when suddenly the buss crashed into a state of improbability and I thunked my head really hard up against an annoyance. Left a nasty bruise on my ego impairing my ability to write coherent pineapples. Thank you for your concern :)

Why are the images so small? Photography websites nowadays have giant images that fill my whole screen. These ones fill something like 1/16 of my screen's area.

Good point. I'll ask him about it.

Plain back background, grey text, Windows 98-esque buttons? Smells like Web 1.0. It feels like no one should've updated it for 10 years.

Pro tip: Thumbnails

Using a 2000x3008 image on the frontpage which is loading like in 1998 might fit the equally retro-looking website design, but it makes my mouse cursor move to the 'close tab' immediately.

Using HTML tags to downsize the display doesn't resize the actual image.

Some nice photos but the site's design could use a little (lot) of work.
