How to use the photo galleries |
|
This presentation works with any browser. I recommend a screen resolution of 1024 x 768, but 800 x 600 will do as a minimum. Since the photos in the wallpaper gallery are 1600 x 1200, bigger is definitely better! This is what a typical gallery page looks like. It shows a column of images to the left and a column of comments to the right. You can return to the home page at any time by clicking St Petersburg home at the bottom of the page. You can also click on the title banner at the top of any page to return to the home page. |

Click on any photo on
a gallery page to see the full-sized image. If you are
using a newer
version of Microsoft Internet Explorer, the image will only be
as large as your browser window.Click on the  button
in the lower right corner to view the image full-size. If you
want to print an image or save it as your desktop wallpaper, you
should first enlarge it to full-size for the best resolution.To
return to the photo gallery from a full-size image, press your
browser's [BACK] button. |

A general word about the pictures in this collection: I deliberately increased the contrast and color saturation of almost every photo in this presentation. This was especially necessary for shots taken in bad weather. Call it artistic license.My goal in doing this was to create an impression of my experience in Saint Petersburg, rather than merely to provide a photographic record of my visit. My success with this varies from one shot to the next, but I think I more or less got the result I was going for—Saint Petersburg is an extraordinarily colorful city, and I wanted that to come across.I hope you enjoy my pictures!
