PHOTOGRAPHS AND OTHER IMAGES
There are two ways to view the image gallery.
- The whole gallery of images can be displayed on a single page. Please bear in mind that using this method the images will appear as they are downloaded, but it may take several minutes to download all of the images, depending on your connection speed.
- The images are linked in a chain, with each image having links to the previous and next image. So from the first image, you can link right through the chain to the last image, displaying one image (or occasionally two) at a time.
You can jump into the gallery at the following points:-
