  • Thanks for the eCard of Barbara and your inspiration entry! I am wondering if you are rearranging? Yesterday things were really crazy at Webshots. The stats weren't working, if I added photos to an album, it didn't show up as new, and I could rearrange albums and captions and they didn't show up as new, so I'm not sure what is new or what is just rearranging on your part. It looks like everything is back to normal today. Please let me know when you have new shots--I want to visit. Freezing in Missouri, Sharon

  • Hallo Ihr Beiden! Wir sind gerade vor ein paar Tagen von unserer Reise zurueckgekehrt und habe Eure liebe Nachricht erhalten. Ich hoffe Ihr hattet auch einen wunderbaren Urlaub in der Bretagne! Bitte sagt mir bescheid wenn Ihr die Bilder ladet! Ich bin im Moment nicht besonders motiviert ein Album zu machen, es ist ja wie ein Friedhof hier in Webshots. Die Stimmung immer noch miess, viele sind weg u.a. nach Fotki, sehr wenig besuche...Seufz! Ich freu mich aber, dass Ihr noch hier seid und sag mal vorlaeufig Salut! Und natuerlich big huge cowgirl hugs from Houston. Marita

  • Hi Kaethi & Henri. Delightful Nature album, well done! Thankyou for your kind Birthday Greetings which have been 'frozen' in my g/b until now, but still a lovely surprise and so thoughtful of you. Enjoyed a lovely day with family. Happy Holidays.. Gladys.

  • Dear Kaethi and Henri, thanks again for your message. I wish you both a wonderful vacation. I hope to see new albums when you're back. It's good that the guestbooks are operational now but it seems you'll have to use English only. Take care, Yair.

  • Hallo Heinz & Kaethi, mir laeuft die Zeit immer noch davon! Schon lange wollte ich euch fuer eure netten Eintragungen danken! Es laufen zur Zeit einfach zu viele andere Unternehmen parallel zu meinen Interessen in Fotografie. * Voller Freude verfolge ich die neuen Alben ueber die Dragonflies. Es gibt Dinge die man einfach immer wieder und immer noch einmal fotografieren muss! Eure Libellen sind ganz einfach fantastisch! Und die Aufnahmen sind so unglaublich klar! Ich habe nie versucht diese schnellen Geschoepfe zu fotografieren, doch glaube ich kaum dass die Macro feature meiner Kamera solch wunderbare Aufnahmen machen koennte. Man kann ja das Gesicht der Libelle erkennen!! Unglaublich!! Ich habe einen weiteren Grund beschaeftig zu sein: Ich habe eine neue Kamera. Mein Sohn hat mich damit ueberrascht! Er meinte es sei ein KLEINES Geschenk fuer all meine Muehen und Hilfen waehrend seines Studiums!! :-) Ich kann es immer noch nicht fassen. Es ist spaet geworden - Ich muss mich fertig machen und zur Arbeit gehen. Meine Postschulden haben mich heute in aller Herrgottsfruehe aus dem Bett geworfen! :-) Alles Liebe fuer Euch Beide! - Galit:-)

  • Dear Henri & Kaethi...Thank you so much for your kind words about my latest Awesome Word of God album as I feel God has called me to use the gifts which He has given me, along with others to share His love for all of us to people all over the world...Now about your album..I always enjoy viewing your images as they are so beautiful..still having a few problems with WS & hope thye will get everything corrected very quickly as it's very hard to make comments or even download images without all the PROXY popups which have started again this afternoon...Anyway Thanks for the invite & for you dear friendship which means a lot...God's Blessings from Celina,Texas...Ken <>< <>< <><

  • Oh! Dear Kaethi & Henri! Congratulations to you for these incredible shots of beautiful dragonfly in the beautiful nature! I really can't imagine ... so close and so friendly, and the most important, so perfect! My best wishes to you for another wonderful weekend! CS :D

  • Hello Kaethi & Henri.. You must be the Dragon Fly experts of Webshots with all these wonderful detailed close-ups. I enjoyed your pretty water scenes and of course I love all the colourful flower macros. Well done for sharing this beautiful album of nature. Thankyou for viewing my Banksias and it would be nice if you could come and see them in reality some time. Best wishes.. Gladys, Western Australia.

  • Hello Kaethi and Henri. I have just been admiring an album of dragonflies by member (gquin) and noticed that you have also shared with us a wonderful album of these unusual creatures. It must be very difficult to not only photograph them but also to know the exact species. Thank you for sharing the macro photos of insects and flowers and for being such wonderful nature lovers. Warmest regards, Roger

  • Hi Kaethi and Heinz..This is a beautiful album showing nature. I love the dragonflies and the flower with bumble bee. The little pond is nice. I am surprised and pleased with all the wild flowers. They are beautiful. I am glad you still have areas like this where you can walk and enjoy nature's beauty. hugs and love, Barbara

  • Bon, j'ai pu finalement voir tout l'album sans interruptions des "proxys" -IRRITANT!!!- Comment repérez-vous (aparemment 'si facilement' ce qui n'est probablement pas le cas) cette énorme variété d'insectes, aux couleurs si différentes??? Et où?? Et comment faites-vous pour réussir les photos???? En tout cas: BRAVO! Moi, quand je les vois ils sont déjà loin ou n'arrêtent jamais... en plus, je suis myope! Bisous et à bientôt (et un grand bonjour à Barbara) Llum

  • Bonjour voulus Heinz et Kaethi. Une nouvelle contribution de ce lieu précieux où on devine paix, silence et calme. Un beau lieu pour prises aussi jolies que celles des dragonflies et simples mais des belles fleurs sauvages. Merci pour cette promenade le long de la rivière. Je les imagine en marchant par ses criques tandis qu'ils conversent ou simplement entendent le vent dans les branches des arbres. Merci pour ce morceau de nature. Une embrassade et toute mon amitié. Jesús

  • Liebe Kaethi und Heinz, wieder ist Webshots so langsam das ich mein Geduld verliere... aber dieser neuer Album is fabelhat..als Sharon sagt: wie macht ihr das die Libelulas (Spanish) so schoen da sitzen und warten bis ihr die Fotos macht? Die Blumen sind ja auch so sehr lieb und zart...alles macht ein "joy to see" Album. Liebe Kuenstler paar richtig schoene Gruesse und danke fur "your artistry"/kaethe

  • Hello Heinz und Kaethi, As a nature lover I like this new album of you a lot. The Gave de Pau area is such a peaceful environment. You also did a very good job in capturing the dragon-flies. The macros are of very good quality. All the best, Tjebbe

  • Hey guys! Sorry for the duplicate photo messages. I guess WS is having a few problems, but I was afraid to stop writing messages because I might not be back for a while. Bob and I feel an urge to head to Columbia to see John sometime this week. :-)) Don't know why that little boy is so much fun to see. :-)) Hugs and love, Sharon

  • Hi Käthi and Heinz! I happened to spot a new album without an invitation. I've been enjoying the slideshow on the beta site, but can't for the life of me figure out how to write a message in the guestbook. I can figure out how to write photo messges, but anyway I came back to the good old version. So now I'm going to pick favorites. I still don't know how in the world you guys can get these dragonflies to pose so well for you. Maybe they know how much you like them and you're both so sweet that they can tell that also. :-) Lots of hugs and love, Sharon

    said  of photoop23 photoop23 2006.08.20 at 17:33:10 PDT

  • Dear Kaethi and Henri, thank you for sharing more pictures of dragonflies. I enjoyed very much. I also like your other pictures. Waiting for episode 4 in your series... Wishing you a wonderful week, Yair.

  • Que de belles photos! et maintenant, je peux tout à fait m'imaginer où vous les avez prises. Paradis pour vrais amoureux de la nature, ceux qui prennent le temps de regarder flore et faune en détail. Herzlich, Barbara
