  • Ciao Jayne. Tu hai una incredibile creativita' e fantasia. Grande idea la tua, probabilmente la prima su WS di un album sulle ciminiere. Belle inquadrature, un album da seguire nel tempo. Un caro saluto, Renato.

  • Jayne, you always come up with unique themes for your albums. I like the pictures that you shared with us and I'm sure that many will be added in the future. Thanks for sharing this album with us! Now that your vacation is over, I wish you all the best for tomorrow! Take care, Yair. PS: thanks for your visit to my album of Iceland. That country is very beautiful and I highly recommend on visiting it (and it's not too far from UK...)

  • Lovely idea!! Will be keeping my eye on this one, and will try to find some of my own here in the Netherlands! Though I think we have nothing to compare to, for instance, your lovely Elizabethan stacks and pots! I will be keeping my eyes open though. Thanks, you are an inspiration!

  • Hi Jayne. A great start to another of your 'Passion' albums. You do come up with some lovely alternatives to the normal sort of album. I have never really taken any notice of chimneys before but it seems there are many lovely designs out there. I look forward to seeing this collection grow. Bye for now. Love Chesca xx

  • Not so sure that this is a latest passion unless you were in Belgium this week! LOL! Can certainly understand the attraction though, loved it on the slideshow and seeing that there's only 27 means there'll be a lot more to come! I'll keep an eye out for you! It's good to have new things to collect now and then! ~ Leslie

  • Hi Jayne, This chimney album is very interesting. I have seen all kind of chimneys ad sometimes a lot of them on one roof. It is a very pretty album. Very English and a bit Belgian. I am very curious what will be your next passion after the postboxes and the chimneys! Greetz, Tjebbe

  • Hi Jayne, I've finally had time to visit your album on your new passion.....chimneys! You have some very interesting shots with lovely blue skies as always, I live a stones throw from wollescote hall and its awful to say but have never really noticed it before, I will definitely have a walk up to it one evening this week! Love Catherine

  • Dear Jayne, What a brilliant idea for an original album I think we are incredibly lucky living in this country and our wonderful architecture. You certainly have made a great start too helped by a visit to Belguim :o) Thanks so much for your visit to my Orchids album I had great fun taking the pictures over the last few months and it helped me to learn a lot about my camera too. If only we could ahve a bit more of that blue sky in your pictures eh. Take care now. Hugs, Jill

  • I see it's growing already! Nice to have a new passion but I know you'll never forget your old passions! I also am very curious as to what will be your next passion after the postboxes and the chimneys! Hugs, Leslie

  • Well Jayne...Another interesting album from your fertile and creative mind! I absolutely love the general architecture of the UK and Western Europe, but I've never SEEN the details so clearly before. Thanks for pointing them out to me! What's next? Weathervanes? Gables? Cupolas? How about downspouts and gargoyles? Have a great day!! Linda in Maryland, USA

  • Thank you for your recent kind comments regarding my Salisbury album and my "Chimney Picture" with Salisbury cathedral in the background. I had not really noticed the chimney, because I was trying to capture the roof angle and hoping to keep the cathedral "upright." I do have some chimneys from Bath Spa, too: http://travel.webshots.com/photo/2728654870031968844HCSqOu You also have permission to copy my picture with the stipulation that you credit the source. You referenced the link for that one as: http://community.webshots.com/photo/2162210370031968844frZRKQ I noticed in your profile that your dream vacation includes Peru. You might want a peek at my South American albums from 2006. I received a travel grant from my employer and had a dream vacation I never expected. I have added a bookmark to your site on my Webshots page and have to agree with several of the other comments regarding your unique roof-top perspective -- these pictures are fun. I have had an interest in doors and windows -- but not a special album -- I may have to take another look at chimneys. Thanks for sharing and your kind comments.
