Welcome to the Grand Foyer of our photo-sharing web site, the Gallery OnDaLine. Scroll down to see the many galleries available for your tour.

Pictures of a peaceful sunset and sunrise on Bob Lake are in the "Nature" Gallery, below. Pictures of the BMW RA "RA n da UP" and the 2008 Cardboard Boat Races at Bridgefest are now available in the "Events" Gallery, below.

New Galleries coming: big waves on Lake Superior, as seen on CNN; First Snow, featuring fall colors and an early October snowfall; fall colors at the Porkies and in the Keweenaw; several galleries highlighting the sights of Yellowstone and featuring the Museum of the National Park Ranger.

The various Houghton Rotary galleries, along with the 2004 -- 2007 RYLA galleries, are now found at http://www.houghtonrotary.smugmug.com.

Visiting the GalleryOnDaLine:

Use the scroll bar on the right to scroll down and tour the "galleries" available for viewing or printing. Once in a gallery, you may select pictures to view from the "thumbnail" displays. You may view pictures as "small", with the other thumbnails, as "medium" or as "large," which will fill your screen; some galleries permit "original," giving full image size to check fine detail. Original and large views in some galleries are restricted to preclude downloading of the larger image. If you order prints of that image, the full-size, original image is used for printing.

Notice that you can change the display arrangements to suit your fancy. What is especially useful is the ability to have all of the pictures in a gallery play as a slide show, using various image sizes. You may quickly scan all of the pictures in a gallery by changing the "Style" to All Thumbs, and then clicking on individual pictures to see a larger view.

All images on this site are copyright 2008 by Bill Fink Communications, LLC. Unless otherwise restricted (you'll encounter it when it applies), photos here may be downloaded for personal use and printing. In some galleries, the picture files may be downloaded for personal or commercial use for a fee. If used for non-profit publication, picture credit to Bill Fink, GalleryOnDaLine.com is required. For commercial publication, contact us for rates and details.

To support non-profit groups and organizations in our community we will photograph your event for a modest fee and place a selection of event photos on-line here in its own gallery. Participants, friends and relatives are then able to view the gallery for free and purchase prints or downloads through the site. As an incentive to the non-profit group or organization to advertize the gallery and encourage particpants to visit and make purchases, 20% of the proceeds from the sale of prints and downloads are returned to the non-profit. With the payment of higher shooting fees, the gallery can be set to permit free downloading of either low resolution or full resolution images.

Please visit the prints & gifts section. Smugmug.com has contracted with high quality, reasonably priced printing services. Note that prints larger than what the standard home or office printer can make are available through this site. They offer photo quality papers with long-life inks. While many home printers accept photo-quality paper, they do not use archival quality inks -- thus your prints are likely to fade within a year or so. Fading can be minimized if the print is placed behind class and is not placed where direct sunlight hits it.

Whether you want original art representative of the Keweenaw Peninsula, wedding pictures, industrial process and construction photography, or simply pictures of your meeting or event here in the Keweenaw to share with employees and customers or family and friends, Bill Fink Communications, LLC will meet your needs.
