Some Visitor Comments:
"I'm writing to thank you on behalf of the Hume Street Church of Christ in Toowoomba, for generously permitting us the use of your photoraphs of ancient Ephesus. Toowoomba is a regional city, aprox 100 miles west of Brisbane, the capital city of our state of Queensland. Toowoomba has a population of some 90,000 people and services a farming region called the Darling Downs. The Hume Street Church of Christ has a history of some 120 years. We have a Sunday morning worshipping congregation of about 800. Your photographs of Ephesus will provide an excellent visual insight to our congregation and help in presenting the background to Paul's letter the the Ephesians." - Neale Proellocks
"Thank you for granting permission for me to use some of your pictures for educational purposes. I am leading a study in two churches about the New Testament letters of First and Second Timothy. These letters were written by the Apostle Paul to his young protégé Timothy while Timothy was living in Ephesus during the reign of Nero in the first century A.D. The pictures are to help the class understand something of the environment of this important city during that time period, and begin to understand that culture. I will acknowledge credit to you for the photos in the power point presentation. Thank you again for your generosity!" - Chuck Harrison
"Thank you for making such good photographs available on the web" - Randolph Melville
