  • Jacques...thank you so much for visiting my winter wonderland in Winter's Skol. I so envy your travel adventures. Would love to travel the world, but I just can't muster up the courage to do it alone. So, in the meantime I'm always delighted when I receive an invite to see your newest album(s). You do a wonderful job of not only photographing what you see, but keeping the diary of each photo....thank you for sharing your rich talent with me. Lorrie

  • Hello Jacques! Gorgeous photos! I wish there were more of the town, the bazaar and the people than the hotel! But, Iguess, you did not have enough time. It is hard to compare Oman with India. The size is far different. Unlike India or France, Oman has neither history, heritage or long standing culture. It is just a rich country with many fine hotels which you captured so beautifully.

  • Bonsoir Jacques et que 2005 comble vos voeux. Merci de l'attention que vous portez a vos amis de Webshots ; l'avalanche de messages recus sur mon guestbook en temoigne. Il est vrai que j'ai un peu neglige mes amis de Webshots, un peu par paresse ; il faut que je me reprenne ! Ma compagne Jeannie a ete ravie des commentaires louangeurs portes sur son album macro realise grace a un merveilleux appareil le SONY DSC-F828, tres lumineux 2-2,8 et dote d'un zoom 28-200 mm. Un grand merci a vous pour les voyages par procuration que vous nous offrez au travers de magnifiques photos - je me repete - ou vous savez montrez a la fois les tresors d'architecture et la beaute des paysages, mais aussi avec beaucoup de talent et de sensibilite les femmes et les hommes qui habitent les contrees que vous visitez. c'est toujours avec grand plaisir que je parcours vos albums. Amicalement. Andre

  • Dear Jacques, you certainly utilized every spare moment you had to capture while you touched down in Oman! LIving so close to this arabian wonder, feel kinda guilty that i haven't visited yet! Shocking!!! :-o Thank you so much for visiting my newest additions and leaving such lovely comments. I am glad you enjoyed! Still learning as you know and find you are a wonderful inspiration to what I would like to eventually achieve in photography. Anyway, I hope that you had a wonderful christmas holiday and that the New year has brought promises of hope, happiness and keeping the quest for beauty alive and well. Take care and sending warm smiles, amy :)

  • Hello Jacques, thanks for offering me a journey on the magic carpet into the land of 1001 Arabian nights! I very much enjoyed your aerial photos (IMG 148), as well as those of the luxury hotel (IMG 161, 183, 168 - the baconies) and the sunset 187 and 190. The gold merchant is also great! Thanks for sharing your experience, and a very happy New Year! Ina

  • Fascinating photogrpahy, Jacques! Incredible shots from your plane window, the contrast of the stark landscape and the lush oasis, the luxury of the hotels! The advantages of an oil producring country (I assume) not touched by conflict (so far). I enjoyed the tour and wish you my best! bruno

  • Dear Jacques! An unbelievable album! The airial shots are among some of your best photos!!!No.15 - shot from the taxi is very good! No.17 - so unexpected ! Total surprise after the scraggy mountains! No.45 (last shot) EXQUISITE!!! Sure the luxury hotels impress people no matter where! The architecture of the place is to be admired. It is a very exciting album and I watched it with my eyes stuck to the screen as every photo was a little wonder!What plans for 2005?????? Because this is how we can travel, too! Je vous embrasse chalereusement, Gabriela

  • WOOOW ! The hotel wher yoy stay it's really a dream for an European as you say! I'm happy for your return and also for the possibility to see the new albums from the best voyager of the community! A very intersting collection from a place that I didn't know and many FANTASTIC aerial views! I like also the contrast from the green gardens and the hard and grey rocks.... they are like two different planets in the same place. Now I must visit your next albums! See LATER CIAOOOOO Ruggero

  • Bonjour Jacques, What a great album! The aerial shots are almost unreal, like from an animation. What a pleasure it must be for you and Pierre to visit so many exotic places and meet such good people. A very Happy New Year 2005 to you and Pierre - may your bags never be quite unpacked! Love, Beth
