Sweet Dreams

The ultimate Javanese Sugar CD is now released. I have selected more than 300 pictures from my colour slide collection taken over a period of more than 20 years. Each image is designed to be presented on a 800x600 (sVGA) screen using 'Hi-color setting'. Every aspect of sugar mill activity is covered and there are also 16 short video clips to show particular aspects of operation. Some of the pictures appear (in reduced size) on these pages but most have never been published.
