Dear Galit, So much sunshine, so many beautiful flowers. Just what I needed to brighten up a dull English morning! Is this wattle tree related to the mimosa? is it perfumed? Another stunning album. The quality of your photos never fails. Thankyou for cheering me up, BIG hug, Sheila.

Dear Galit, I didnt even have chance to thank you for one GB entry when you left me another for my feature last week I just want to say big thank you, you know your words mean a lot to me. I to be honest am just totally overwhelmed by the response I had. But this album of yours is really special and a bit of Aussie where you live LOL I can't wait for the spring flowers to get going here we have had a very cold, dull spring so far. I still not sure how you can think they look like sheep BTW ;O) but I love the ones where they look like golden rain. Take care now my friend and thank you once more Love Jill

Hello Grannie, Sure like your first picture, all those flowers in a field, appears one could lie down and take hundreds of shots. You asked me a question of the stamp album, Forestry Congress, China - never been to either, but stamps take me there without ever leaving the States. I remember once on a high school test a question: When was the Gadsten Purchase? It reminded me of one sheet of stamps I had that was celebrating a hundred years by 1952, so my answer was 1852 and I got the correct answer. I thought that kind of interesting. Anyway, the stamp market dropped out of sight a few years ago, so decided to sell them off. I wish I hadn't now. Take care of yourself and keep shooting. Thanks for the look. Real nice album. Say hello to your family for me. Ron/Oregon Coast

Hi Galit, this is actually an email from Tirza not Ran. I'm staying for the Shivah at Ran my brother's home. Thank you so much for the condolences, it is really nice to hear it from your website friend. If you live close to Hertzelia, you might want to come and visit us here(let Ran know). My mother was a wonderful, fun to be with, lively person even in her 90th. She will always live on in our memories. By the way, I checked this album, and I loved especially the compositions in pictre 11 (neighbors) and 29 (with the cat). It is very eautiful. Thank you again, Tirza now in Israel

Thank you Galit for your very kind words regarding my cartoons that Eti has put on display. It is something that I really enjoy doing. My wife is going through cancer treatments and so its has been a kind of therapy for me. I have several more. If you're interested in seeing some more put an e-mail address in my guestbook and I'll toss a few your way. Yair did that & asked me to delete the message once done. I took the opportunity to visit some of your albums. You are very good yourself. I enjoy taking close up shots as wel - thus my "Close Encounters" album. Thanks again for your kind words.

Hi Galit. This time it's me. What a wonderful albom. Full of light and colors. The Accacia is blooming now and I have to stay at home....Many thanks for this beautiful albom. Ran

Galit, really like your Golden Wattle photos, especially the one where you can see some just coming out (#9) and the one that reminds you of sheep (#10). By the way, my name is Nancy (thought I'd told you already in one of your albums but perhaps I forgot, sorry). Thank you for your kind note re: my skydiving album (still a work in progress) & Lotus Land. Sorry to hear about the snafu with your featured album and thank you for letting everyone know about NO EDITING ONCE FEATURED as it disappears from the featured archive (maybe we could ask Webshots to re-instate it for you). At least you can put "featured" on on your album for all the people who love to go to your site. Today I went out in the rain and took some photos from under my huge golf umbrella and my charge's hamster (babysitting). AGAIN, thank you for sharing your lovely pictures with us as always.

Hello Galit, Thankyou so much for the Kind word you put into our Grandchildren's album. Your photos are so beautiful, I have a lot of answering back to people, but will get back to you today. Best wishes. Ray and Eileen. (UK)

Hi Galit! Enjoyed your beautiful "Green and Gold" album featuring our Australian Wattle which looks perfectly happy and thriving in your country. Strange to have it blooming at this time of the year, but it is Spring for you over there. Lovely close-ups and I know those balls of yellow fluff are hard to get in focus. You may be interested in the history of how it became our floral emblem -- http://www.worldwidewattle.com/infogallery/symbolic/emblems/national.php Best wishes.. Gladys, Western Australia.

Hi Galit, wonderful yellow album! You are featured by me! I have never seen this tree before, it looks gorgeous. And your pictures, too. Greetings, Merike

Now This is what I call "Yellow"! This Golden Wattle has a beautiful textural floral to it Galit, and you again have captured and composed its beauty so well my friend! Your blooming tress of Israel are all stunning, and I appreciate you sharing them with us all!!! GB, Ted

Galit - It has been months since I had stopped by for a visit - It is wonderful to find your work it thriving and it is so beautiful the captures you have in this album. A spot of sunshine does wonders for the soul and this album is a beauty. You have done so well with this one. Thank you. Best wishes, Stan, California

Galit, Trees is a wonderful album and the snail shots are terrific. Love the Star pine framed by the other two trees in Neighbor. Wonderful captures. Lorrie

said greenhorngrl 2006.04.11 at 09:40:24 PDT

Dear Galit,We have them here, too, but now I know what they are thanks to your album!!! Lovely bunches of sun, aren't they, and so difficult to get in focus. Yellow, like red, is difficult to picture correctly, but you managed pretty well. Thanks for the congratulatory note left in my g/b. Appreciate your kindness and prompt attention! Friendly regards from Yoshiyuki Tanaka
