  • Hi Sharon, I think you may find some of your photos uploaded in the albums of this user http://community.webshots.com/user/RayneBoShyne I found some of mine, and some seemed to be yours. I saw some of other photographers as well, that I recognized.

  • I just wanted to say that I stumbled upon not only this site but your album in particular. I am always scanning through images on the net for inspiration for paintings. I don't photograph so I rely on photographers to provide my details. The vision in your photo's, how you frame your shots are exactly what I picture in my mind before I paint a subject. Truely amazing, you have a gift from God never stop photographing. Thank you so much for sharing.

I dabble in making slideshows and have done so with some of your photos. I assure you my slideshows are not for commercial use and will put the shows on a website when I learn how, lol. If you have any objections to me using your photos for my slideshows please let me know and I will stop immediately. Great photos. Thanks, Ed

Thanks Sharon for your message for our trails! I don't remember if I told you: 'We will soon be without computer for about 10 days because of our Pyrenean vacations. We hope to bring back some mountain pics…'. We tell that to our webshots friends that they will not be astonished when we don't write guestbook entries... we are very busy preparing... and so much in the garden to do before leaving on 25th. We hope the last weekend trip was a good one for you! Big hugs to Bob and you! Henri and Käthi

  • Hi Sharon, what a wonderful spring album you have created. It is pleasure to see spring scenery presented on your spectacular and colourful images. We are still under "yoyo" weather from summer to winter conditions at this time of the year, it is no longer appreciated :). Friendly regards, Rafal

  • WOOOOOOW, Sharon!!! What a wonderful new album of the spring!!! Your botanical gardens are just fabulous and gorgeous at the same time!!! You have such a great eye for the beauty and know how to capture what you see!!! You are an artist in photography, my buddy!!! The variety of your various motives is just amazing!!! I love your work!!! Every single picture is a masterpiece!!! Congratulations and thank you very much for sharing your fine work!!! - Sharon, thank you so very much for the kind words you wrote me on my FEATURED album!!! It was a very nice surprise to me to see all the e-mails running in when I came home tonight as I realized what happened!!! I never thought I would have a featured album anymore!!! The reason that you heard already for a long time nothing more of me is that I am once more very busy in my office!!! It means that I have unfortunately less time for my friends and my hobbies at the moment!!! I am so sorry for that, I hope it changes very soon again!!! God bless you, my dear buddy!!! Love yah, Erik

  • Hi Sharon, What a great album!! I loved all the photos! Lots of jigsaw puzzle material here you know!! :--))) I have already made 2! I would love to have this place nearby to visit again & again. It must be really nice. Loved the unusual gazebo. I am sure I would enjoy sitting there awhile. I especially like the photos with the bridges in them. And of course the water. Keep up the good work & thanks so much for sharing. Hugs, Flo

  • Hi Sharon and Bob...I think this is one of the lovliest places on earth and I am so glad you are able to photograph it. I love the azaleas, the daffodils, the tulips, the weeping cherry tree, the crabapple blosssoms, the wisteria, the Japanese garden, the zigzag bridge, the arbour arches, Paradise Island, the statues, everything!!! You have other albums of this place and even though it is the same place, the shots are all different. It is an amazing place and thank you for taking me along on your visit. With seeing this album today and Marianne's feature, I feel so happy and it has made me feel better, at least inside. with hugs and love, Barbara and kisses from Bonnie

  • Oh Sharon, that's a fantastic new album!!! We had a wonderful walk with you through the MBG, thanks!!! We love all these marvelous color combinations of flowering trees, bushes and plants! We feel the Spring, we smell it! My favorite is the Picture of the Red Dogwood Blossom framing the Japanese Bridge, but also the Stone boat basin with the bird (beautiful stone!) and the cute young lovers! Nice that there are even wildflowers in the park! Concerning the closer views: We particulary like the magnolias, the 'Inside of a Tulip', the pansies and the tulips with our Swiss colors...! and of course we disvcovered with pleasure some familiar animals: ducks, grackle... Thanks, Sharon, not only for this awesome album, but also for your last three nice guestbook entries! May be we will be late with e-mails and GE for about a week: Our son Beat arrives with his family to-day!!! Little Sophia will need all our attention! Have a wonderful weekend and thanks again to you and to Bob (there are pics from him, too?), Henri and Käthi
