My brother Benjamin (nicknamed “Bene”) loves travelling. And he travels a lot – from Alaska to New Zealand. On his journeys he’s taken a bunch of exciting photos that are just too interesting to get dusty in his private photo album.

For sure he’s an amateur but I think professionalism isn’t the point of travel photos anyway. When you look through all the photos then you can somehow re-experience his adventures, see why he’s so fascinated by nature and travelling – combined.

For now I’m just glad this site is live. I started working on it a long time ago but fortunately there was no pressure to finish it off as it was and is just a fun project.

Regarding Flash/ActionScript: there isn’t much to discuss. There are a lot of things that can be improved (back button…), that could have been avoided (scroll bars in Flash) but there isn’t much that could have given me a better way of getting to know ActionScript than this project.

Enjoy Benevisions.de!

I’m not sure how it looks on the PC but it works fine – regarding the performance – on the Mac.
