		Photo Albums (Pictureviewer):
		The "Pictureviewer" interface is designed for fast and intuitive access to photography or sculptures. The main subjects are presented in this way. Using the viewer, the user can scroll down the selection bar on the left, viewing landscape orientation images first, and lower down portrait orientation images. By clicking on images, these can be displayed in the larger viewer format on the right hand side together with basic information and the picture number (important for sales enquiries). Navigation bars at the bottom allow access to the previous or following set or allow a return to this main index page.

	1.	Volcanoes 1 - Nighttime Eruptions
		Focus is on long exposure photography under low light conditions. Includes classic pictures showing trajectories of glowing volcanic bombs or the paths of incandescent material down the flanks of volcanoes, lava flows illuminating their surroundings at night, glowing lava domes etc.
	2.	Volcanoes 2 - Daytime Eruptions
		Focus is mainly on explosive activity or on rockfalls and pyroclastic flows emanating from Lava Domes. Many pictures of ash clouds and other volcanic ejecta.
	3.	Volcanoes 3 - Lava
		Focus is firmly on Lava flows in this section, taking the viewer from close-up pictures of lava flows showing the fine structures of the lava, to more expansive views showing the flow in its context.
	4.	Volcanoes 4 - Hot Springs & Fumaroles
		Focus is on volcanic hot springs, fumaroles, geysers and gas deposits. Aims to show phenomena associating with volcanoes when they are not in eruption. Particularly colourful images from hot springs are included.
	5.	Volcanoes 5 - Volcanic Destruction
		Aims to show the impact of volcanic activity on the surrounding infrastructure. Focus is largely on Montserrat, where activity of Soufriere Hills Volcano led to destruction of the capital Plymouth. The city was partially burnt by pyroclastic flows and has subsequently become buried in ash and rocks falling directly or being violently swept down the flanks of the volcano in the rainy season (Lahars).
	6.	Volcanoes 6 - Volcanic Landscapes
		More expansive views of volcanoes, often showing the surrounding landscape.
	7.	Wildlife 1 - Penguins
		Assorted Penguin pictures, including pictures of the largest Penguins, the Emperors, but also pictures of King, Gentoo, Chinstrap, Magellanic, Rockhopper and Adelie Penguins
	8.	Wildlife 2 - Seabirds (excluding penguins)
		Dedicated to seabirds such as albatrosses, gannets etc.
	9.	Wildlife 3 - Other
		Various pictures of wildlife from around the globe. Serves to hold images of animal types of which only few photos are available on the site, thus not justifying an own category.
	10.	Polar Landscapes & Icescapes (including Icebergs)
		Landscapes, Icescapes and Icebergs encountered during travels through the polar regions.
	11.	Moais (including Sculptures of Moais)
		Moais combines pictures of real Moais from the mysterious Easter Island, but also covers sculptures of Moais hand-made by the author of this web-site. The sculptures are in principle also available for sale although production is presently minimal.
