What a treat this album is Jayne, Hugs. Shirley

Dear Jayne, Another awesome album. We think they have cancelled spring here this year as it is still cold and has rained a lot, thus everything is late. Our trees look like mid winter with some not showing any signs of leaves yet and I was thinking today it is just over 4 months and the leaves should all be falling for another winter. All I can say is "yuk". We still can't plant anything as it is still frosty in the mornings. If you look at member _20820 and yes you do need the underscore first you see more of my pictures some of our area here in Maine and some of our trips to England, Cornwall and Yorkshire areas. Hope you enjoy. Take care and keep the camera clicking as I truely do enjoy your presentations. Love Janet

Dear Jayne, your album goes directly to the heart of the viewer! Such a blue sky and such colourful actors! I love #5 - snowdrops, because I cannot see them in Japan; next #4 and 10 are very good shots, photographically speaking;other favourites are #40/43/54/59. Are those cyclamens planted or growing in the wild? Enjoyed my visit and thank you for the rich display. Friendly greetings from Japan, Gabriela

Hi Jayne, Thank you for your kind words on my Merritt Island album and thank you for the privilege of expressing my favorite. This was a difficult task because you have so many wonderful images and unfortunately my favorite "Daffodil&qu ot; has already been picked. However my next favorite must be "BIJOU" looking out the window (photo #24) followed closely by "Purple Trio" in this album. Thanks again, Paul in Florida.

Hi Jayne! Thanks for the beautiful words in my guestbook, they are truly appreciated! What a daunting task you gave us! It took me forever to decide on which one of your pictures is my favorite!! Soooo many grand photographs! After much consideration, I decided that #40 in this album is my favorite...outstandingly beautiful picture! What a wonderful idea you have come up with, I wish you a lot of success with this album! Thanks for sharing and thanks for asking me to pick one of your beautiful pictures as my favorite...take care my friend...Darlene

Dear Jayne, Thank you so much for your wonderful commnets. Santa Barbara is a bout an hour and a half drive time from our home. It is very beautiful county, and you are right, a lot of Mexican architecturial influence. Beaing featured was a fantastic fealing, I couldn't believe how joyful I felt. I manged to answer everyone,and had a great time checking all the beautiful albums. You appreciate it even more to be featured, while there are so many talented photographers here. This is an incredible community here. Tirza

Hello again Jayne :-) I understand know that it was my guestbook entry you lost, not the photo! Duh! All I said was that Hattie is adorable with that lamb and you should print that photo for her - it is so precious. Your new photos are beautiful too - the azaleas remind me of our first visit to the Lakes district. It was in the spring and I've never seen so many beautiful azaleas and rhododendron - incredible! You live in a beautiful country, Jayne. I'm glad you appreciate it. Hugs, Beth

Hello Jayne! I'm so happy you enjoyed my album of Provence - we thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. Our B&B hosts turned out to be from England and Scotland (Xanthe and Hamish), and we had a marvelous time with them. I'm not sure what you meant about losing the photo of Hattie - I was referring to the one with the lamb which I see is still here in this album. So I'm confused! Also, I don't have your e-mail address so I couldn't send it anyway. Let me know if you meant something else. Have a marvelous weekend. Love, Beth

Oh dear Jayne...the photo of Hattie feeding the little lamb is priceless. Hattie is absolutely adorable. I bet she has a big piece of your heart. I hope you are doing well. Also, thank you for your thoughts and prayers regarding my dad's surgery. He had two places in his leg that had blocked arteries and had to have two stents put in. I was beside myself with worry, but it seems everything turned out okay. I just have to keep after him to eat healthier and get more exercise. Anyway, I really appreciate your prayers. Thank you!!! Lots of Love 'n' Hugs. Donna

Hi Jayne! Pleased to see that Spring has come to the Northern Hemisphere and that the colourful blossoms and flowers are brightening up your days. Must be a wonderful feeling after such cold winters.

Hi Jayne, I see you did some updates, beautiful updates. I think spring will NEVER be 'too much'! I'm happy you liked my citrus blossom. It is such a beautiful time. Most people don't even see it, it is 'not special enough' ! I came in this time of the year for the first time to Israel , and I still remember how amazed we all were then - 36 years ago! :-) Have a beautiful spring! :-) Galit from Israel

Hi Jane, your spring has sprung and we're still waiting and it'll be just a bit longer. Its was time for me to come back and visit those that have visited my site in the past and this album of "Spring is here at last!!! is where I found your newest album. You do cover an album with beauty in your area. We've received blooms of daffodils and the crocus have come up and then diappeared already, but waiting for the trees to pop out is next. Anyway, thanks for the showing of all. You're welcome to visit my site again and update your eyeballs if you'd like, some updates you might find interesting. Ron/Southern Oregon Coast

Hello Jane, How are you my UK friend! Today I saw you added to your spring album so had to come back an take a peak. #30 such a delightful choice of flower to plant under a tree. I love the field of crocus and downloaded it on my last visit. Don't you just love tree blossoms. Our trees buds are about to pop right now, can't wait. Ahhh...How I love the spring! Have you visited my newest album - Spring is in the air? Drop by when you get chance, Always love to hear from you dear Jane. Big hug, Laura

hereslaura 2005.03.08 at 08:49:47 PST
Hi Jayne, Framed in Blue is sooooo pretty. I had to download that one immediately. I love this album. We still don't have any flowers popping up yet. Just the very tops of the daffodils are popping up and this week has turned bitterly cold and we are expecting more snow on Wednesday! So....I'm still waiting. I have a new album up, so if you get time stop by for a visit. I put it on late last night and this morning I got a g/b entry from Laura (hereslaura) and Darlene (briansbabe) and they both told me that I had some "broken" ; photos, but I think I got it fixed. Let me know if you can't view all of them. Thanks again for sharing this beautiful album. Luv 'n' Hugs. Donna

deestea 2005.03.07 at 17:11:18 PST
Hello Jayne Wow...the new additions here are gorgeous.I think the African Daisy is so pretty.Also the Hellebore....I have several in my own yard.Many over here call them Lenten Rose. Good Job!! Bye Kathryn
said
photorose 2005.03.07 at 12:11:39 PST
Hi Jayne, great additions! "Framed against a blue sky" is stunning - such a combination of colors. You got a great shot of the helleborus too - they're difficult, aren't they? Have a great week. Hugs from California, Beth

bvillanyi 2005.03.07 at 06:51:51 PST
Hi Jayne, I enjoyed getting a taste of spring from your album this morning. We are having warmer temperatures now but we woke up to 3 inches of snow on Saturday morning! Still no blooming flowers although they are starting to poke up through the snow and old leaves. I can hardly wait. In the meantime I will have to content myself with beautiful photos such as yours! Connie in Ohio.

Hi Jayne. I was just passing so thought I would look in and see how English spring flowers look these days. Wonderful as ever and it would be marvellous to have them out so early, especially given all that bad weather we have been hearing about. I love looking at your photos so keep 'em coming! Peter in Western Australia

Hi Jayne, by now you sure managed to answer all of your fan mail after the last featured album! :-) You are even uploading new albums!!?!! WOW! I like Stratford more than Birmingham. Maybe you went there at a sunnier day? It looks much more friendly; it's the kind of place I would like to live. The 'Lamp Posts' are beautiful! Hopefully this album will grow in future? This spring album is my favorite! All that blossom!! Your close-ups are very well done, very professional and very much spring! I love the snowdrops and the meadow with 'crocuses everywhere' an wonderful place and a gorgeous picture! I am so happy you liked my fairytale of those trees and I am already looking at and for other trees..... I think I could make an album of Citrus Trees. They are now in bloom and some of them have still their fruits. Maybe tomorrow will be enough sun, then I will look for strawberries to buy from the strawberry fields and take some pictures on my way home... Take care! Have a beautiful weekend! Galit from Israel

Jane my friend, This album is spring at it's best! We are just getting signs of spring so it will be a month or so till we catch up with you. You are one great photographer. I have you as one of my favorites so I can see your albums full screen, that way I can really appreciate your photos. Take care, Laura
said
hereslaura 2005.02.24 at 10:02:24 PST
Dear Jayne, thank you for inviting me! How I appreciate going through your garden! All of my flowers still have to rest under a snowdrift.But if there is any new sign of spring in my garden, I will make a new album and surely send you an invitation. I am glad, that God said in his word: It will never end winter and summer,..... so spring has to come :) Be very blessed Tina

Hi Jayne, It seems that signs of spring are popping up all over Webshots. Where I live it hasn't appeared so I have really enjoyed browsing around your album today. Thank you for sharing your spring flowers with me, Candy

NOT FAIR...I'm sitting in Snow/Rain/Hail/Flooding/L andslides and TRAFFIC and you have Spring bounding in all around you....Beautiful! Love the closeups of the blossoms. I vote for pouring yourself a nice BIG glass of wine...a bit of cheese and sitting in your garden enjoying the scent of the flowers and the bouquet of your wine. Lorrie
said
greenhorngrl 2005.02.19 at 13:39:49 PST
Hi Jayne, I said I would be back and here I am right next to my friend Beth! Its a very small world now dont you think? It looks to me that spring is much further on where you live, here in Lancashire we have the snowdrops, crocus and daffs but no sign of the blossom on the trees as yet. I like your albums and am off now to take a closer look, I added you to my favourites so that you wouldnt get lost amongst the many. Luv...Meg.

tinadeko 2005.02.13 at 05:42:40 PST
Hello Jayne! I love spring and your snowdrops are the best thing I've seen all year :-) We've already had crocuses and daffodils and primroses and helleborouses, but I haven't had the time to go out and capture them with my camera. So happy to see your flowers on the screen. Maybe I'll get inspired tomorrow. Cheers and warm spring greetings from California, Beth
said
bvillanyi 2005.02.12 at 20:53:51 PST
Hi Jayne, I can't believe you already have spring flowers. I love the snowdrops! I can't wait until our flowers start to poke their colorful little heads up. Today was unusually warm for us in February, so I'm sure it won't be too long. Sometimes our flowers come up and then we get a big snow or freezing temps and it hurts them, so I have to be patient...LOL. Since your flowers are already popping up, I'll look forward to seeing more from you. Take care and God Bless. Donna

deestea 2005.02.12 at 17:08:19 PST
Hi Jayne, I'm happy to be the first to comment on your spring album. It is nice to see flowrers again. In Los Angeles the flowers are confused, some days it feels like spring, some days it is still very rainy. Enjoy your photography, I'll be watching for your new stuff. Tirza from Los Angeles
