BEAUTIFUL.  Wonderful, wonderful photos.  (Can't do it w/out those, huh?)  The color scheme and matting are terrific.  And not overly-done - I really like it.  You have a great style.

Only suggestion would be to balance the page better... the right side seems to balance precariously on the bear image.  And even in saying that, I'm trying to think how to do it.  Hmmm... maybe if the title "Riding Bear Back" went along the bottom from the left side up to the bear, it would make for a balanced bottom to the page. 

And putting the pics front and center would make them the focal point of the page (as they should be - very unique and meaningful pics).
