More categories will be added as demand requires, and you may also find some do not have descriptions. These will be included as they are completed.

The right hand side of each page displays the brief descriptions and thumbnails (small photos). Each page has a maximum of 10 thumbnails with a button bar underneath the photos to navigate to the next gallery page

Most of the pages you see on your screen are from a data base. If the data base is being updated or repaired and pages may not display the correct information. If you find a re-occurring problem viewing pages please email us

If you move your mouse over the thumbnail a hand (can vary depending on your computer) will appear . Click (push down) the LEFT  mouse button and the screen will then change to show the larger image with the full description.

At the bottom of the page below the last thumbnail and brief description there is a 'button bar' . This indicates how many more pages are available for the category you are viewing. Left mouse button click over  ' > ' ( shown right ) will take you to the next 10. The diagram right shows there are another 4 pages of the category to see, up to another 30 thumbnail photos & descriptions. As you go from one page to the next this button bar will change allowing both forward & back navigation of the pages.

If you want to change to a different category in the Photo Gallery, move your mouse to the small black arrow (pointing down) and  click the LEFT mouse button.

The drop down MENU ( shown right ) will appear as shown to the right. Then move your mouse onto the category you wish to see, click the LEFT button again to select that section of the Photo Gallery

The page will then change to that section.
