Thank you for this wonderful album, the amazing pictures, so light-colored and beautiful. It seems to me that these beaches are peaceful and deserted. Thank you for this look into paradise! Best regards

said brigittar101 2008.09.28 at 07:45:00 PDT

Hello - what a beautiful album. I'm particularly impressed with the colours brought out of the sea and the rocks - its just the kind of thing that I try to capture. I shall enjoy perusing it in greater depth along with your other albums. Thankyou so much for the invite and the kind comments you have left on my Cornwall album! Alas - although I think Cornwall has stunning scenery it cannot compete with this! Best wishes Anna

If ever I felt like taking a swim it was during the tour of this album, lovely and I did so enjoy it Peter. It was well worth being featured...Cooee, Shirley

Hello Peter! It is so good to hear from you again. Thank you for your kind and generous comments about my Cambodia album. Much appreciated and very heartwarming. Many thanks for your visit. Keep well, my friend! I am sure Aussies will have their day next time they meet the Indians on the field! Best wishes and warm regards, Suresh

Hi Peter. Love the photos! I had the privilege of living in Esperance for a little over 3 years and my first instrumental CD "Esperance - Hope with great expectation" was named after the town and inspired by many of the places there. I miss the diving, walks along the coast and the many friends I have there. Hope to return someday. Thankyou for posting these nice memories. Mark. www.marksmusicaustralia.c om

Hi Peter Wow we have always wanted to go to WA and after looking thru your albums I think it will become top of our list next year. The beaches are beautiful and remind me of the south coast of NSW and I thoughrly enjoyed this album and it deserved every accolade you received. You must have had some of the best trips with your caravan travels. You are right there is a cheese factory still at Tilba na dthank you so much for yout wonderful comments in my album and I am sure we will share more as I look though your albums.

Hello Peter!!! Just saw your entry in the blog so thought I'd come by and welcome you back from your holiday! I hope you had a wonderful trip - am I right in guessing you went to Tasmania for your anniversary??? I must admit I was starting to wonder where you had got to and was hoping it was on holiday :) I look forward to seeing your photos! Best wishes and hugs, Kate

Hello Peter Thanks for contacting me through my albums and its great to hear from another West Aussie. You could have seen us in Kalbarri: we managed the PCYC Camp for 2 years and had our Denning bus parked on site there, next to the Anchorage Caravan Park. Next week we begin a new challenge, managing the Peppermint Park Eco Village in Busselton. Call by and see us if you can. Love your albums too. Regards, Linda

said timwil100 2006.02.02 at 02:06:29 PST

Hi Peter, I missed your album when it was featured beacuse I was away on holidays. Since coming back I've not been able to catch up with you because the Community Archive was down. Well better late than never! Congratulations on the feature, your photos are as enticing now as they were back when I first saw them last March. I see your latest album is still missing 25 shots. I drop by regularly, and will eventually be rewarded with a full album. Hope you had a good Australia Day, cheers Keith.

said magikeith 2006.01.26 at 04:15:44 PST

Peter, thanks for your kind comments about my album(s). I'm glad you enjoyed them! I add several pictures weekly to my newest album to share with friends and family back in Oregon in the US, so it's a work in progress. Our beaches here in Baja look similar to the beautiful ones in this album, and we're impressed daily by our good fortune to live here and enjoy it! Happy picture taking! Harriet

said purkeypics 2006.01.24 at 06:14:37 PST

...must get down to Esperance one of these days ... the white beaches have always impressed me ... to answer Peter, I've been extremely lazy or rather busy. Haven't uploaded thousands of px from different shoots. Must lack discipline! NO, haven't uploaded the last trip at this point ... will do! Your's continue to motivate and impress this fellow lenser! Congratulations ... all most impressive! Cheers and regards ~ BjD

Hi Peter. Thanks for the compliments regarding my sydney album & the jacarandas. I hope I get the time to take more next year when they are in bloom. The eastern & northern suburbs especially are awash with lavender blooms. I love the pure clean water of the beaches near Esperance. Thank you for sharing the beauty with us.

Thank you for the comment you placed in my featured album on northern New Mexico, Peter. I had browsed through your albums of Western Australia and of Perth and found them very interesting. You captured well the scenery of a part of Australia I thought didn't have much scenery. I went on a tour of Perth through your albums, which I think you captured the city well. Your album deserves to be featured. Have a Happy New Year. Steven, Fort Worth, Texas.

Hi Peter, thanks for visiting my featured album today and for your very kind words in the guestbook. I got a very lovely present from Webshots for the new year. Although 2 of my featured albums were made in Haifa, I do not live there. I used to live there while studying in the university 10-15 years ago. Today I live in Ramat Gan which is close to Tel-Aviv. However I have less luck with my albums of these cities... Wishing you a wonderful weekend and a Happy New Year, Yair.

said ykarelic4 2005.12.31 at 08:22:09 PST

Hi Peter, Thanks for your kind words about my photos of Whitiker Pond. Hod did you find them on Webshots? As you can see I just started to put albums up on Webshots. I hope to put up a few more in the near future. It is located about 6 miles from my house and I drove by it that morning after taking a relative to the airport for an early flight. I had never been to it before and was pleastly surprised by how nice a setting it was. I drove by it for 7 years as I was working out of the Airport at the time, but never stopped at it until last month. My name is actually Randall (my oldest son is Evan Reese, who was a newborn when I discovered Webshots) and I have wanted to come to the Perth area for many years. In 1988 I had tickets in my hand and was coming via Kenya, but contracted Malaria while in Kenya and had to return home. Actually a missionary family from Perth, who i did not know took care of me while I was in Kenya with the Malaria. I was on my way to Perth to teach at a little Bible Training College. i still hope to get over there one of these days. I really enjoyed your photos that were on the home page of webshots, especially the 3rd page. Perhaps the day will come when I will get to Perth and we can have a cup of coffee, share some pictures face to face and take some photos together. Thanks, Randall

said carioni 2005.12.31 at 01:53:56 PST

Hello Peter. How dreadful of me to miss your feature day. Shame on me, but then it was my birthday, so I suppose I can be forgiven. Fabulous beaches is definitely one of the words I would choose to describe these beaches. A fine collection of coastal shots. My warmest congratulations, even if a little belated. You've probably heard of the cold weather we've been having over Christmas, although having said that, today it's turn quite mild and all our snow, frost and ice has melted. What I'd give to be sitting on a beach right now. Soaking up the sun is but a dream and at least 6 months away, lol. Happy new year and I look forward to you posting many more feature albums in 2006!! Cheers, Jayne/West Midlands, Uk :) xx

Dear Peter - double congratulations on this fascinating album and its well-deserved feature today! I have been to many beaches and lakes with unusual colouring of the water - but never anything like this - the contrast of the light blue-green water and those pure white sandy beaches! It was a joy to watch the slide show from beginning to end. And, of course, a little animal life like your magpie visitor always provides a nice added touch. With my best wishes for a healthy and happy 2006!(And many more featured albums) bruno

Hi Peter, Congratulations on your absolutely beautiful featured album! I reiterate what I said the last lime I visited - These are some of the most beautiful beaches I have ever seen. I particularly like the rock formation you captured in "Twilight Beach8". Beaches are surprisingly difficult to portray in pictures, but you have done a wonderful job well deserving of today's honor.

Hello Peter, looks gorgeous, congratulations on the feature. Now you have made me feel bad, as I have had to trade with the wife my proposed visit to Ningaloo reef & your big trees for another exotic place. She just could not face the plane trip out there. Strange as it may seem if you swopped the sand & sun for mud, your old jetty photo would be very similar to our old jetty on the Wash. Eric

WOW! what a beautiful place. I love every shot.I'd love to spend a lot of time there. Some of your last pictures where you were right on the beach looking out over the water is just beautiful.I think the one that really is awesome is #54. Thank you so much for sharing these gorgeous pictures with us.I'm in love with that place. Claudette

said mamabear250 2005.12.23 at 12:33:14 PST

Thought this might be of interest - I've put the 4 photos up in the Panorama album that were used to make Kohaihai sunset so you can see the lighting differences in each shot. This was probably the most problematic panorama to stitch because of the lighting difference but the programme seems to have handled it pretty well. I just had to fine tune some of the wave matches but the colour blends in well across the photos not just in a band by the seams as some other programme seem to do...

said klb49100 2005.12.08 at 13:51:43 PST

Beautiful album Peter - wish I'd found it sooner! One thing we don't seem to have over in Kiwiland is white beaches and our water isn't all that clear really, especially where I come from - makes swimming a bit of a nervous experience sometimes as you know there's crabs down there somewhere! Georgeous water colour too. Reminds me of the Bay of Fires in Tasmania. Great to see it's so quiet too! Thanks for your comments about the panoramas but I'm not sure I can take all the credit - was the programme really! Will now have a look at some of my building shots from around the place and see if I can do something with them too - you've got me inspired again :) Cheers, Kate

Hi Peter,now these are the places I would like to visit and spend time taking photographs, what a beautiful collection you have here,the white sands contrasting with the amazing colour of the water makes this a winner. Thanks for the trip. Louise

OH MY GOD this is a PARADISE! Hi Peter (please to meet you in 37 :-) ) I was here to thank you for your to gentle comment at my last album, but now I'm FULL OF ENVY!!! Those beaches are simply incredibles and Dolphins Beach is a PURE DREAM! Anyway.... I must be MORE quiet and send you my COMPLIMENTS for the quality of your shots. Great landscapes with fantastic colors (blue tonalities are great) and some interesting details.... However ... I DREAM a swim in those beaches!!! ENVY!!!!!!!!! :-) A BIG CIAO! Ruggero

Hello Peter,what a glorious album this is. I can almost feel that lovely white sand under my feet.These beaches are similar to some in the far north of Scotland ( minus the rain) You live in a beautiful part of the world ,Kind regards, JOE (Glasgow)

said jdgraham100 2005.06.16 at 16:39:07 PDT

Hi Peter, Thanks for you comments on my Scenes Seen album. You also wrote in my guestbook for my Winter Scenery album when it was featured back in Dec. '04. I've enjoyed looking at your beaches. Next winter, when we're knee-deep in snow, I'll try to remember to come back to this album and imagine I'm soaking up the sunshine at Thistle Cove. Peace, Fred

said bayskater_ 2005.06.14 at 08:14:58 PDT

Hi Peter and tks for your too funny words in this 2nd shock album today. I don't quite know what to say...let alone where to start with all the thanks. I have put a big one at the top of the albums because I am soo far behind still...and have to finish painting etc. I am very humbled...and I have no explanation and I know that there are many many many far far greater albums than mine....so figure they must have got my name stuck in the hat...LOL!! Anyways...keep up the jokes...I luv it...Take care my friend...and keep on washin..lol....Em

said emphotos103 2005.06.11 at 22:02:59 PDT

Hi Peter, Had to come back for another look at this lovely album, I SO love white-sand beaches, and so much empty space!...The little bird (23), is it a young cookaburra? I see it most days on my screensavers, and remember how it ate from your hand. Lovely..... Hope you are both keeping well, Send loving greetings from UK, Sheila.

said lensmate 2005.05.12 at 04:01:02 PDT

Wow, this album is totally fantastic!! The beaches in Australia are absolutely beautiful!! I would love to see them some day. Thank you for sharing and for your kind words in my featured album. Lynn in California

said lalimone 2005.05.07 at 21:47:33 PDT

Hi Peter...WOW!! I guess I was away when this beauty went up on Webshots...What a wonderfully beautiful magical part of this great land you have captured...I am totally smitten!! ALL is just soo beautiful mate...and...I loved the photos of the old Jetty remains especially the one shot looking through. Twilight Beach and those just spectacular rocks just blow me away...They are just AWESOME and do look surreal like a Dali painting or something. Twilight Beach 8...that rock on the left is the one..Brilliant shot!! That rock is unbelievable...!! West Beach 2 with the Rocks water and sky...is just gorgeous and I love how you say...with all these beaches...these is just nobody around and that is exactly how I love it!! I shall get there oneday and wander those beautiful shores, run in the beautiful white sand...and dive in that pristine blue and beautiful waters that sweep the Western coast of this awesome land!! You do such justice to the beauty of the West. Absolutely breathtaking you guys...and the Archipelago...and all those islands you mention...are just 'something else"!!! tks heaps for your fabulous album of the beaches and the beauty...and loved the little morning visitors. Have a few birdy pics myself taken at a friends and they are soo very friendly also and cheeky...and one comes up and pecks at the door..Cute!! Great album!! Take care my friend and have a really great day....Em

Thank you so much for the kind words in regard to my featured photo album! I was so surprised! I've been smiling ever since. I especially love pictures of beaches. Perhaps because I rarely get to visit them and they are so different from the desert. Very nice photos. Thanks, Cathy

said calepo 2005.04.29 at 10:58:46 PDT

Hi Fantastic photos you have in this album! Makes me want to go and see for myself. I enjoyed them very much, thank you, all the best. Thank you for your nice comments in my album.

said tj2052 2005.03.29 at 22:19:34 PST

Hi peter, Thanks for the nice words about my pictures, I am still learning and expimenting with the 750 camera and I feel I need some software but sometime the camera gets a good shot without my help. I do live in a very pleasant part of California, with both public parks and unimproved nature walks. The wild flowers are my favorite subjects and the early spring blooms, although fleeting, are very beautiful. None of my pictures, compare to your flowers and so I appreciate your comments even more. Ross from California

said rdwltr 2005.03.26 at 10:46:32 PST

Hi Peter. What kind of bird is the daily visitor on page 2?. I don't mean the magpie. Catch you again in a minute or three. Al...

Hi Peter, thanks for the comments in GB. This is a beautiful album, wonderful beaches. About that fish, I thought I could smell something coming through my comp. Good on you mate, great album. Best wishes, love to Betty. Ray and Eileen.

Hi Peter,I enjoyed my virtual tour of your beautiful beach scenes,just the kind of beaches I like,with nice fine white sand and few people on them,very well captured and presented. The answer to your question on the passenger ferry at Teignmouth,it now costs £1 each way,a bit of a steep rise from the two pence that you remember,but it is still very popular and well used by locals and visitors alike,Regards,Rod.

said chrisrod100 2005.03.20 at 06:15:06 PST

Hallo Peter, have been looking through several of your albums, which leave me feeling I have enjoyed a whistlestop holiday. What a beautiful part of the world you live in. I was most of all impressed by this album. How I love white beaches, and these are fabulous. What a lovely holiday you both must have had. and to find a B&B with such a gorgeous view, and a breakfast balcony, AND visitors to share it with you. What more could you wish for? Those little birds were SO tame, even to eating out of your hand! Thankyou SO much for sharing it all with us. Happy greetings to you both, Sheila, from Buckinghamshire, England.

said lensmate 2005.03.13 at 07:29:04 PST

Hello Peter,what beautiful beaches!Fantastic views from your B&B,i love the little breakfast visitor.The tyre steps are great, very inventive!It looks like you had a very relaxing holiday, unlike me!!Thanks for your kind comments on my recent albums.We went up to the Lakes for a week & as you have seen managed to do some fantastic snowy walks.Three more days worth of photos to go!!My very best wishes Angela.

said osprey137 2005.03.11 at 23:29:50 PST

Hello Peter, that was a beautiful beachtrip! A great album and wonderful pictures. The panorama picture is marvelous, as well as the pictures of your breakfast guests. Furthermore I very much liked the photos of the Old Town Jetty (40) and nr. 57-Twilight Beach8 (such magnificent rock formation!) Thanks for sharing through your pictures the beauty of these beaches. Contrarily to your beautiful weather we have had heavy snowfall last week, some parts of our country had up to 50centimeters of snow (my town had only 20 cm). For my country this is really exceptional. I made lots of pictures of it, they are to be seen at this site in 2 albums: Winter Special (new additions) and Zwolle (new additions #33-63) I have also a new album with pictures of a Belgian vacation. So I did not sit still. Have a nice weekend, friendly yours, Els (evanwely/wely246)

said wely246 2005.03.11 at 05:05:05 PST

Hi Peter. What lovely quiet beaches. I felt warm just looking at them. That must have been a very relaxing holiday. I like the little bird who visited you for breakfast. Do you know what it was? Thank you for warming me up. It has been very cold here lately although we have had no snow. Pam.

said hilldreamer 2005.03.09 at 11:45:20 PST

Hi Peter! What a spectacular album! The beaches are just so beautiful..you can almost feel the warm gentle breeze blowing in off the ocean! Twilight Beach is awesome..love the different rock formations! Photo #40 is my favorite..spectacular shot!!! It was nice to see the face behind the camera too! Looks like you and your lovely wife Betty had a wonderful and relaxing holiday! Thanks for sharing with us...take care...Darlene

Hi Peter! Fabulous beaches, great album!!I did not know Pieter Nuyts, but the name IS Dutch. His vessel's name in English is the Golden Seahorse. Lucky you, to live close to such beautiful empty vastness. The foto (31 ) of the young magpie is also a beauty! Greetz Anna oldenhave, Holland

said annaoldenhave 2005.03.09 at 04:17:24 PST

Me again :o) I have now caught up with your latsest album and those beaches are just wonderful. My favorite has to be Twilight beach corner, it looks just wonderful. When I looked at the rock formation it reminded me of a Hippo. I think I would have had to strip off and jump in that gorgeous looking water. What type of bird is that first breakfast visitor ? You look like you had a fantastic trip and you certainly live in an amazing part of the world.Nice to see a picture of you too. Jill

said jillbatchelor 2005.03.08 at 14:09:25 PST

Lovely, lovely beaches. Thanks so much for sharing. If it hadn't been for Charlotte's suggestion that I take a look at these lovely pix, I might have missed them. This is an album that deserves being featured one day on Webshots. Thanks for sharing! Kat in Pennsylvania, USA

said katmeow5 2005.03.07 at 08:01:29 PST

Peter, you're right. How did I miss this one? What amazing beaches you have there in Esperance! I don't think there is a single beach on any of three coasts (Atlantic, Pacific, and Gulf of Mexico) of the U.S. that is so pristine as yours. I simply must send your pics along to my eldest daughter and friends who would like to be beach bums! Be careful sharing all this beauty, or you may have some unexpected visitors from the States. Oh, and that hunky guy showed up in your photos again, too. I can't tell you which photo is my fave, tho "View to the islands" is certainly one. I also like that close-up of the rock with the erosion cave. You really captured the water with good effect in that one. Hugs, Char

said barnchaser 2005.03.07 at 07:19:01 PST

Hi Peter, What beautiful, unspoiled beaches. They look a lot less commercial than ours at the Gold Coast. You really do produce a fantastic slide show. Cheers Chris :-)) Ps I have just loaded an album of the Moon you may like to look at :-0

said chrissy40111 2005.03.07 at 00:30:19 PST

Hi Peter, these are magnificent photographs of some sweeping seascapes. I’ve always heard about Australians' enchantment with the sea, but where are they? The beaches appear to be some of the most beautiful I have ever seen, it must be summer, and yet there doesn’t seem to be anyone around. Paul in Florida P.S. Thanks for your kind words on my Flowers guestbook.

Hi Peter, again an outstanding album! It should be featured!!!! :-) At last a 'front picture'! ;-)Thanks Betty! The colors in this album are unbelievable! The white sand and the different shades of the water are magnificent. Where are all the Webshot painter, Sheila, Em! Here are beautiful motives! Thanks for looking at my new albums. I asked Gladys just for one single name - this time! The names are still incomplete, but I know where to find them. I have a 'tourists flower book of Israel' An other thanks for 'the ripper' I appreciate it very much! :-)) Since now nobody could identify the Mystery tree.....maybe tomorrow!

We finished preparing all things for the conference which is starting this evening. Today the sun is shining but it is VERRY cold...brrrrrrr....! I sat in the sun but the wind was blowing my hair off! Well, nearly...:-))!I am thinking of you both and sending you all my love and big hugs.

Hi Peter, Great shots of beautiful beaches, I have you as one of my favorite members and I am not disapointed when I view your slide shows. I have a new series of pictures covering some Spring flowers and blossoms Where I have used the Auto setting and uploaded the larger file as you suggested. I like the one picture of the White blossom and I would appreciate your comment. Ross from California.

Hi Peter! Wonderful way to start a day with a walk along such beautiful coastline with all those magnificent beaches! Did you have a swim at each of them? Nice to see your Breakfast Visitors and of course no seaside would be complete without a Seagull. Pleased they have found a way to re-cycle old tyres, very innovative!. Thanks for sharing this part of your holiday. Gladys

said gladysclancy2 2005.03.05 at 00:13:43 PST

Hi Peter, this is a glorious collection of photos! Such pristine beaches and beautiful colours. You were so lucky to have birds to visit at breakfast time. Early birds after the worms, no doubt. Was that a butcher bird? They are lovely birds, with a most beautiful repetoire of calls. As for magpies, what can I say, they are a national treasure. Cheers, Keith.
