Great photos. I love your Norfolk robins. I also love that you've taken the time to set up browsing by species!

If you're at all interested in feedback:

- When scrolling through a gallery grid, the multiple fixed-position headers eat up an awful lot of screen real estate. On my MacBook Air (effectively 1280x800), I can only see one full row of photos at a time. Feels very cramped.

- Navigating to a photo from a gallery and then hitting my browser's “Back” button takes me back to the “Report” tab on the galley, not the photo grid. Makes gallery browsing pretty difficult.

- Maybe both of these problems could be ameliorated by making gallery photos open in the lightbox, rather than shunting you directly to their pages. Although...

- Items in a gallery's slideshow/lightbox display don't have a link to their photo pages. Maybe the name of the photo could link to its page?

    Wow, cool – IMO, the galleries are so much easier to browse now.

    I'm not sure if selling prints is a priority for you, but it would be rad if you could do on-demand prints. In the meantime, I'll e-mail you about a couple :)

      there's a handful here: https://dombarker.co.uk/shop

      I didnt want to have it so that all photos can be printed, some just dont have the image quality that you need so I just curated a handful to start.

      But yeah, any you like you have my email, i do a lot of home printing fwiw
