I think it looks cool. Only thing I saw that struck me as needing to be dealt with is that I barely see this "This is a brand new gallery with no photos." on the bottom left of the Information and the Contact pages.

Also, you might want to throw a little copyright statement out there somewhere. If it is there, I missed it. I know it isn't necessary so much but I just feel like it makes viewers think you are on top of things and maybe think twice if they were considering copying anything. But that is just me. I know that it can add clutter to a clean site also.

Looking good!

I like it, but I find the watermarks and the captions on the home page pictures distracting. Though I understand the need for protecting your images. Just my 2c.

My thoughts as well... a more subtle and cornered watermark would be better. The other though was, I am not sure a description for each photo is needed.

Strange (on the "empty gallery" statement), but I don't see it in IE or Firefox. What browser are you using? Or are you on a Mac?
Thanks for the info.

I was using Chrome when I saw it. I jsut checked in IE here at work and I see it there too. You have to look close....

Here, I made a screen shot and outlined it. It is definitely not easy to spot. I just happened to notice it.
