Hi Gabriela. You have put together another excellent album. I had never seen this one before and find it be up to your usual standards. Excellent. You have so many photos that I had to watch it on slidewhow and not many of the individual photos. Some of them are spectacular. I enjoyed this very much. Sharon from Minnesota, (Candy's friend)

Dear Gabriela, I am so sorry I have never seen this album before and then I realise there are pictures here that you have entered into the challenges. There are just so many wonderful pictures in the whole album and I love the way you always capture the beauty around you and then have a thought provoking title for the image to. :o) Gabriela thank you so much for all your wonderful comments in my latest woodland album I always value highly your comments. Hope you have a good weekend. Love, Jill

Hello Gabriela. Looks like I missed this album first time around. So glad I saw it today You have a wonderful eye for capturing so much beauty. Your opening shot, and I notice that it is a new additon, is awesome. How fortunate you are to have seen this for real. Enjoy your week. Hugs, Jayne xx

said hjaynefoster 2007.05.29 at 06:05:46 PDT

Hello Gabriela, This is quite the excellent album! How do you find the time to just read all of the comments written to you about it? You are quite the flower queen, and do a great job in your "kingdom." Thanks for your note about my old tree shot. I posted it at 4AM, just after I got home from work. Not a good time to be posting on Webshots. When I got up I became aware of my mistake and corrected it with another shot from the same tree and two other pattern shots. If you are interested you can view them at the following links.

Gabriela...This album was so enjoyable to view. I did not leave many comments, but it is not because I didn't find the subjects or images unimportant. It is because I would have to comment on the beauty of each photo as not to leave any of them out. I love seeing all these images and see what you have seen on your walks. I love the light and shadows of some and the beautiful flowers and blooms, the nice relaxing places and more. Thank you so much for all your comments in my stationery album. You were too kind. hugs and love, Barbara

I like your animal photos as well, your dog, the turtle, the little ducks, they are so cute. Very well done my friend! Very well taken! Also your gardens, your tulip macros, great work! And thank you very much for all your kind entries in my guestbook and photos the other day.

Dear Gabriela such a breath of spring and a joy to view. Thank you so much for your best wishes and all of your kind comments in Jack's Chrictchurch album, he takes such unreal photos and yes it was very romantic punting down tha Avon. I looked at your husband's peonies as well and they and your album are outstanding I am visiting them a lot. Best wishes Sandra

said sandrajacktrips 2006.06.10 at 03:34:39 PDT

Viele liebe Gruesse aus Houston, Gabriela! I realize I arrived very late for your wonderful spring album! But I think I even appreciate it more since the heat and humidity of summer have set in as early as April this year. Oh what a joy to view! I loved how you suprised us with a few b&whites and sepia in between! Thank you kindly for your visit to my Limburg album, it is indeed a lovely place to visit! Have a wonderful week. Marita

said worldtripper 2006.05.31 at 10:03:22 PDT

Gabriela, You must love flowers as I do. I always try to capture and preserve their temporary glory so they can live again,if only in two dimensions. You have an eye for the same beauty that I appreciate. I lived in Japan for 9 months in 1970. Your photos brought back memories of the sakura blossoms after the early spring monsoons. Japan is unique for its natural beauty, and culture that compliments it. I would have liked to see the TV program about the Hokkaido foxes. I will look for it on the Japanese satellite channels. Thank you so much for your kind comments on my featured album, and for the inspiration of your photography. Craig from Washington State

Hi Gabriela! What a sensible, magnificent, capture of spring! I just loved the tree blossoms, as well as the tulips and cyclamen closeups - really like flames! The BW photos are also very artistic and expressive. Thank you for sharing these wonderful album. A belated thanks for your nice comment on my Venice album (I guess belated is better than never :-)).

Gabriela - I have tried several times to view this album in one setting but always managed to get interupted. I finally was able to appreciate this body of work in one sitting. What a great album you have created. I love your use of different angles and always using the setting to its show its best vantage point. You are such a wonderful artist. The colors are fantastic and such detail. Thank you for sharing these. Thank you for you wonderful comment in my GB on 20 March. Please forgive me for taking so long. I have just returned from the East Coast of the USA and have been very hard at work. It is always a pleasure to hear from you and your comments are always appreciated. Thank you again, and thank you for sharing your work at webshots. Best regards, Stan, California

Hello Gabriela, Still a stunning album, love your new additions. Love the special effects you added to some of your photo's. do I see a album of digital fun soon to come?? Hope you don't get hooked like me. It is a wonderul way to pass the time in cold days I must say. Our trees are ready to pop and some of my flowers too. Still a bit cold out, but soon I will be outdoors again working in my gardens. Great album my friend...Hugs, Laura

Hi Gabriela, this is a wonderful album! Each of these atmospheric pictures awakes the longing for spring! As gentle and tender they are, they touch my soul. By the way: I was in the Japanese Garden in Vienna in order to take first spring photos - but I hardly found a bud! Thus - while waiting for the spring to come - I look at your wonderful messengers of spring. Warm wishes, Vera

Dear Gabriela, another wonderfull album you have put together. It just oozes spring that we are desperately looking forward to! It was much milder today & a few flowers came out in my garden but generally it has been to cold over here. I am however anoyed with ws for changing the system on favorites, this album has been loaded now for 9 days & i have not viewed it because the latest albums by our favorites no longer come to the top. Such a sily change, hope they go back to old system soon! Eric

My dear Gabriela ,this is such a stunningly beautiful album and I love your use of many techniques intermingled for interest and anticipation throughout.I love that creation of unpredictability here it builds up so much interest and the element of surprise...fabulous work.What a lovely collection of Spring you happened upon and have recorded so elegantly!No I cannot choose favourites for each holds its own richness and story but the selection appeals to me greatly and I have so much admiration for your wonderful work!Sending you the warmest of hugs,love and congratulations on a magnificent production!Lynne (please send me an invite to Yoshiyuki's Spring Album as I am getting so confused with favourites and friends not being updated with new work or else I don't understand the new system very well!!!)Love again -Lynne

Dear Gabriela, you have created the most wonderful spring album here! The combination of those colorful and so glorious close-ups of the bloom and the views aside to those ducks and the other couple, the wonderful reflections (pic # 12 is so special!!), the high bamboo, the modern artifacts and the contrast in pic#59 between cold architectural lines and colorful bloom. I like the lovely birdhouse in the middle of bloom and I like the composition of this album. After all I have one question: What shows picture #16? Have a wonderful spring day! Galit from Israel

said 854847 2006.03.18 at 08:54:25 PST

HeeHee! Dear Friend! I admire you so much for your great power of seeing and sensing the difference! And this is also why my admiration to you and Yoshiyuki for your true power in our warm community. You are the first person having actually noticed and mentioned my changes in my photos. Thank you so much! Yes! I had bought a new camera last year, the reason was simple ... my old camera was broken down, and needed several months time for the repair (a very complicate story, a chaos of the camera industry chaos which has long affection). I was forced to buy a new camera (with more powerful zoom lens) for my vacation trip to Australia. This is why you can see that I can have better animal shots without getting close to them when using the powerful zoom lens. But I still love my old camera very much! Now I use both cameras or different conditions. Thank you very much Dear Friend for all your favourites! Big hugs and big smiles to you and Yoshiyuki! CS :D

Dear Gabriela, This album permits us to make a trip in Your stock of pictures and some are very nice: first the Blue Eye of the Sky 3, in 9 You had brown hair? Love the compo of the wooden house in 14 and the flowered pink tree in 18, 23 is interesting and curious, is it a montage or natural? I loved also the daffodils in 38 & 38, the tulips in 45, 46 & 52, the blue bells in 32 and my most preferred is the leaves on a trunk in 19; WARMS greetings from COLD Paris, Jacques

said pfjc2 2006.03.16 at 22:23:24 PST

Hello Gabriela! You have created another lovely collection and I am more than ever impatient for Spring to arrive. She is teasing us this year - some early warm weather brought out many blossoms, then sudden cold and rain for weeks and everyone has all gone back inside. Like Trudy, there are too many favorites for me to name, but I managed to find five that I loved above the rest: 12, 13, 15, 25, and 68. Your use of black & white, sepia, and macro is very nicely done. Brava! Warmest greetings from California, Beth

said bvillanyi 2006.03.16 at 08:33:15 PST

Oh, Gabriela, I LOVE this one. You have really put a jewel together. I tried to pick a favorite and ended up with all of them. Tulips, spring flowers,trees, city scape, water, it is all in here. I hope this turn itno a featured album!!! Greetings, Trudy
