Photographic Galleries Viewing  Links

The "best of" gallery contains a small subset of photographs from the main gallery.  The viewing controller is simpler to operate.  Start with this gallery to get a glimpse of what you will find in the main viewing galleries.

The main gallery contains four main categories; mountains, flowers, parks - sights and photos by my friends - miscellaneous photos.  The sub-buttons under the category buttons actually turn on the galleries.  Photos in the 13 galleries include shots from the high Sierras of California, Mount Shasta, Lassen Volcanic National Park, Point Reyes National Seashore, South Carolina's Congaree National Park, the Huntington Library and Gardens in Pasadena, CA, California's Big Sur coastline, wildflowers of Southern California, North Carolina's Appalachian Mountains and more.

The SilverLight Photo Book contains some newer photos from New Mexico and a few of the photos from the other galleries.  I did it  to practice utilizing SilverLight technology.  It is a pretty neat viewer.  You should check it out.  Use the mouse to drag the pages open by holding down the left mouse button and moving the mouse left and right.  To open from right to left, you must grab the bottom right corner of the page, hold down the left mouse button and drag to the left.  To open from left to right, hold down the left mouse button anywhere on the left page and drag to the right.  You will also see a little double rectangle below the book, on the right side.  Click that to open thumbnail icons to control the book.  If this is your First SilverLight page (most likely is since SilverLight is fairly new), it will prompt you to install SilverLight on your machine.  Don't fret!  The same thing probably happened to you years ago when you viewed your first Adobe Flash page, such as YouTube.  Your browser needs a plug-in for the page to display.  This plug-in comes directly from the Microsoft site, so it is from a trusted source.  Allow it to install to view the photo book.
