27 May 2006

The Ross-on-Wye section of TheVista had begun to dominate so I have split it off to form http://www.ross-on-wye.com. This makes better use of the http://www.ross-on-wye.com domain name and so that TheVista can continue to be more about "places I have been". The transition between the two sites should be seamless and clicking a Ross-on-Wye menu option will automagically carry you off to the new site and to the details you were looking for.

Site Opens

12 August 2005

After I bought a new digital camera, a Kodak DX7590, I uploaded my photos to my other site slys.co.uk but as the collection increased it seemed only natural to give them their own space. Being relatively new to digital photography and photography in general, the quality of photos varies greatly and I hope that they will improve over time.
