The page needs some time to stabilize (IE6). Clear your cache and see what I
mean :-)

Almost impossible :-)

- First tab -> 'Skip to content'. Pressed Enter and expected to have focus
on the first image (that *is* the content imo) but it takes another 12 tab's
to get to the first photo.
- It's hard too see which image has focus (must be my age of course)
- Image enlarged with Enter. How do I return? I read somewhere it should be
ALT + LEFT ARROW + BACKSPACE, but that doesn't seem to work.
Well, it can be doen but I'm glad I have a mouse :-)

Nice photographs however!
