  • Hello Yair, You have wonderful pictures of Orchids here! I enjoyed them so much! It's a challenge to photograph these majestic flowers and you coped with it perfectly! - Dear Yair, I want to thank you - just a bit late, but never too late :-) - for your comment on my album 'Austria is free', where you stated that I created the album one month before the very event :-) You were right and I thank you again for looking so closely at my albums - the event took place on September 18th, 2005 (and not October). Love, Vera :-)

  • Hello Yair: in time of visits here from friends and relatives, we loose a bit contact with Webshots... sorry to have never seen before this beautiful album. Utopia seems indeed a marvellous place to encounter a great variety of Orchids. We are everytime impressed by the incredible variety of forms and colours, as well as by the "life cycle" of this outstanding plant. Thank you for the gift you make us - fits very well for Easter...! - All our good wishes, especially of course for Easter time! Kaethi and Henri. P.S. And thanks for your kind comments of March 8, 14 and 21 in the Titmouses, Trees & Skies and 100th Birthdays albums!
