I saw something about the Museum of Modern Art (http://www.moma.org/) yesterday evening on television and they showed Works of Michael Wesely.
This guy made several pictures of the reconstruction of the museum in the past three years. Every picture (http://www.moma.org/exhibitions/2004/Michael_Wesely_11-20-04.html) had a long-term exposure of 3(!) years.
That means one picture per camera per 3 years... The results are absolutely stunning.
On his website (http://www.wesely.org/index-ie-e.html) you can see some more of his work...

What an annoying website this photographer has?

Oh, you noticed, too. I just gave up on it after the 2nd pop window opened but nothing happened when clicking on the buttons.

I got pictures, but it was a strange format and interface.

The PC I used to bring it up doesn't have the larger screen resolution, so the window was bigger than the screen, and the window didn't have scroll bars. I couldn't get to my task bar at the bottom of the screen, so I had to go into Task Manager to kill it.

Geez, you would think while waiting around for a three year exposure this guy would have time enough to do a decent Web site :!: :P

Have Fun,

hmmm... I don't have any problems with his website.
Clicking on start opens a window which you won't leave during browsing.
What browser are you using ?
I use IE6 in Avant Browser.
Firefox works fine also except for the fonts...

This PC (at work) has Windows XP with IE6. The screen resolution is 800x600. I haven't tried it at home where the resolution is higher.

Have Fun,
