  • Yair.. I can say this without reservation..This is the best album I have ever viewed on Webshots! Words cannot describe what I felt when viewing it. First of all , your photography is excellent! Secondly, it makes me feel that I went through a time warp to Biblical times. It is a place that someday I would truly love to experience myself. I don't think that I would ever want to leave it! It is Paradise!

  • This is a fantastic album. I love it all from all of the long distance shots to the closeups of succulents, statues, etc. And I wonder just how they manage to keep those lawns mowed so beautifully, especially as it looks like it could be a very dangerous job with such a drastic slope.

  • They say the Middle East has its own flavour,aura or Mystery and its True.You noticed it in the sandy coloured Architecture scattered across Haifas Welcoming Range as the Golden Dome of the Ba'Hai temple glittered with the first rays which originated from a Jordanian Sunrise.The Dagon Silo was draped with an Enormous Banner Proclaiming The State of Israels 25 yrs of hard earned and Proud Identity.....from Book which may one day may be finished and possibly Published...Enjoyed every frame....

  • Hi Yair. Thank you for your nice and wise words on my album about blood donations. I'm happy when I say that, at least one person, I have already convinced to give the first steps to be a blood giver, and, besides, I discovered that some others members and friends are already involved in the cause. This is much rewarding. Today I discovered this featured album of yours! And what a deserved feature! Wonderful photos of such a beautiful place! I loved the gardens and the monuments. Thank you so much for sharing. Warmest greetings from Portugal, Rosa

  • Hi Yair, I'm sure you could survive cold weather. It is so clean and no bugs, haha. Your feature was stunning, congrats. I didn't write here as my comment would have vanished among the millions of others on that special day, I guess. Finland rarely gets up to 30 degrees in summer. Our winter in Helsinki has so far been mild. It means daytime -5 C or warmer :) I don't go out much. The houses have double glazings and central heating. We have it much better than in damp Mediterranean weather. Only the darkness of the day is a problem to many people. We haven't got enough daylight till February. Finland is otherwise one of the best countries to live in. Statistically. I don't think many people would like to change their home because of the weather. I haven't been to Israel. As I didn't go when young I guess I never will see this interesting country. The ideal temperature for me would be 25 C. I love 4 seasons. But the winter is just too long here!! Enjoy your warm weather. I will plunge back in this album and download my favourite pic :) Have a great day, Merike

  • I have worked/become friends with many Jews over the past 20 years, based mainly in Haifa, but was surprised to learn that the Bahai sect is based in Haifa. Perhaps the Haifa community (Jews, Arabs and Christians) should look more closely at their history, and get rid of all reference to their common Colonial pasts, and just live together under the ideas, beliefs and politics of Christianity, Islaam, Judaism and, yes, even Atheism.

  • Congratulations on your featured album, Yair. I have heard of Haifa, but never knew how beautiful a city it is until I saw your albums. Your album of the Baha'i Gardens is well deserved. I was surprised to see cacti in the garden, but I realize that Israel has a dry climate ideal for cactus growing. Thank you for the comments you left in my album on northern New Mexico, which was featured yesterday. Have a Happy New Year. Steven, Fort Worth, Texas.

Seems that Webshots needs a category for Public Gardens as I hardly think these could be classed as a Hobby. However, it is a really enjoyable album and beautifully photographed. Well done and Best Wishes for Lots of Lovely Photos in 2006.. Gladys, Western Australia.

  • Hi Yair, for the last months I am experiencing unexpected problems with my comments left in firneds guestbooks. While so many times I left my comments under your beautiful albums then my comments never appeared...I do not know why? I ask webshots for an explanation as to why the majority of my comments I left in your guest books as well as the guest books of my webshots friends never appeared. With great concern I am leaving this comment. For the last months since my posting of albums under the sites komierowski1300, komierowski1400 and now komierowski1800 my comments about your wonderful photography and photographic observations never showed up. I hope that you realize and understand that it was not my intention to cut off all the ties with my webshots Friends. For the coming Season, please accept my best wishes, and Merry Christmas or Happy Hanukah. Kind and friendly regards, Rafal of Calgary.

  • Hi Yair: What a beautiful place, so rich and so varied - one thinks being in paradise...Everything seems to grow there, and this no doubt motivated men to add creations! Thank you for this very special enrichment; thanks also for the kind guestbook entries in "Hoarfrost..." and "Flowers from Summer to Autumn". Best wishes: Kaethi and Henri

  • Thanks Yair, I agree, and, yes, I access Webshots mostly from the Technion. :-) Our connection is usually not bad, but we have problems too. Anyway, it seems that Webshots' problem are WORSE. Take care, Orly

  • Hi Yair, you are right. The Gardens category is necessary. I don't think you need to worry about its cancelling. I was just wondering about its role, as I saw many albums there that seem more suitable for the flowers category. But certainly Webshots has bigger problems. Yes, you are right, the Mideast category doesn't look very good. Webshots probably can't make people take better pictures, but they can give more attention to the Middle East by putting it in a separate category. Just yesterday they featured a good album from the the Middle East. I too hope for a better categorization, but in the meantime I am more bothered by the question: Is Webshots really that slow, or is it my connection? I'm afraid the answer is BOTH!!! :-s But I'm still not desperate!!! Cya, Orly

  • Hi Yair! It took ages to run the slideshow, but I was finally able to enjoy this album. I haven't been to the Baha'i Gardens for a while, and now it's been a pleasure seeing the great views and colors you have captures. Good job, and I am happy for the publicity of this eight world wonder in my city. I have to say that if all religions would treat their holy places like the Baha'is do, we would have a better world. Cheers, Orly

  • Hello Yair, I am a very new member, and I am now able to spend time to look through other member albums on webshots. Thank you so very much for your kind words. Isn't our world (planet earth) a splendid place to see. I am so greateful for webshots, because now through pictures submitted by other members, I have the opportunity to see pictures of places I know I will never travel. Thank you again, and I will be taking more photos of my home area.

    said  of wynsongp wynsongp 2005.11.16 at 12:44:09 PST

  • Hi Yair, It's a funny thing about coincidences! I had never heard of these gardens before, but about an hour after I went through your album I was watching a TV program on our "Travel Channel" on the top ten man-made wonders of the modern world when they showed this building and some of the gardens. Of course, as soon as I saw that dome I recognized it. They spoke of the history behind the temple, of its dome, gardens and of the terraces (16, I think - 8 above and 8 below the temple). I couldn't believe that within an hour I had heard twice, from totally different sources, about a place about which I had never heard before. It's a small world. Take care, Paul.

    said  of paul_fernandez paul_fernandez 2005.11.16 at 12:08:41 PST

  • Hi Yair, Beautiful gardens! But it's really the architecture that rings my bell. And that dome - what a beautiful creation. I guess we have the colorful deserts but you certainly have those wonderful old cities. Haifa, isn't there where Orly (orlyyahalom) lives? She too is a wonderful photographer. Greetings from Florida, Paul. P.S. Thank you for your kind comments on my Nature 2 album. Those are old photographs originally captured on film over decades of travels and lately digitized via scanner.
