Welcome to our photo gallery, with over a thousand photos mostly about cats, Curious Minds' products (our science shop), farm & nature, flowers, optical illusions (from Eluzions.com), our mostly Physics museum, and places.

Most of the photos here were taken by me, Alan Richmond, on a Nikon D50 or Coolpix L4. Some were taken by my sons Neil & Mark on the D50. Some texts are from Wikipedia.

We operate Curious Minds, an online shop specialising in science toys, gifts, and gadgets. We also operate Artzia (poster shop), Eluzions (games & puzzles), & Encyclozine (encyclopedia).

Alan & Lucy Richmond met while programming the Data Management Facility of Hubble's archive. Alan was at the ST-ECF, hosted by the ESO in Garching, Germany, while Lucy was at the ST ScI in Baltimore, USA.

We hope you enjoy looking at these photos, and if you want to chat with us, please email me (alan at kosmoi dot com) or visit our shop to find our telephone number or contact form.
