I loved seeing your cows. I live in Houston, Texas and we had 360 cows all around town the first year I moved here. I went around and photographed many of them. It helped me learn the city. Great photos. Lori...USA

Fantastic

I discovered your photo "Táxi cow" from an invitation to use the Webshots/Beta. Deservedly, had been integrated in the “Tour” of presentation, in the topic “Entertainment”. Congratulations. VMoreira, Portugal.

Great cows, animals are popping up all over. I nabbed a few bears in Victoria, B.C. and it was so much fun tracking them down but the heat got to me. Will go back on a cooler day to finish up! Second visit to see your album, good job!..Leslie, Canada

Olá Margarida. Que bom é encontrar mais uma compatriota aqui pelo WS. Gostei muito deste teu album. Eu própria estou a pensar fazer um idêntico com fotos que tirei no passado fim de semana. Obrigado por me mostrares algumas que ainda não tive oportuniadade de ver. Outras estão bem mais bonitas nas tuas fotos do que agora pois já foram um bocadito vandalizadas :(. Cumprimentos, Marina.

A very interesting Lisbon album! Congratulations and thank you for sharing it. Ray
said mccoyray
What a delightful album of colorful cows! Thanks for sharing & congrats for being featured.
said amhalveytoo
Margarida, diga-me uma coisa - os nomes das vacas em Inglês fazem parte da exposição ou são traduções, feitas tão somente com o propósito desta mostra no Webshots? A reply to Marita from Houston and Marisa from Chicago - The cows displayed in each city are the work of local artists and go on to be publicly auctioned off at the end of the exhibit. Oh, and a reply to Leslie from Canada - The language spoken in Portugal is NOT Spanish but Portuguese... Liége from Brasil
said liegeagain
Hello and congrats on featured album. I really enjoyed all the cows. If you like the cows you might enjoy looking at my salmon on parade album.

said Darlaree
Margareta, I enjoyed the cow parade album! I was lucky to see the cows in Zurich a few years ago. I wonder if they are the same. Then I saw Yair's cows in Tel-Aviv. And I know of the cow - parade in Houston, when I didn't live here yet. Anyway congratulations on your wonderful feature! Best wishes from Houston. Marita
said worldtripper3
I LOVED IT TOO!! i collect cow parade figurines, so seeing the real things "in action" was great!

Olá, muito obrigada por partilhar estas interessantes fotografias. Estou-me a preparar para um destes dias fazer o mesmo, só que algumas vaquinhas já estão um pouco danificadas (vaca varina, por exemplo). Obrigada. Mª Helena

Congrats on a truly fun feature! You obviously have the same fascination with the cows that I had in Santa Fe, NM with the "trail of painted ponies". They're so colorful and creative! Thanks for sharing the cows...nice job! -debbie

Hi Margarida, congratulations on your feature today. The cows are fun to look at - each one is so creative. I saw the cow exhibition in Warsaw last summer, and in 1999 they were in my hometown. Greetings from Chicago - Marisa.

Olá Margarida! Grande dia para os membros portugueses do Webshots! Muitos parabéns por esta merecida distinção! E goza cada minuto nas luzes da ribalta! Obrigada por partilhares connosco estas belas e simpáticas vacas de Lisboa. Excelente fotografia. Tudo de bom, Rosa
said quartominguante
Great album, congrats on being feature with this very whimsical and interesting feature of Cows On Parade. We were in Chicago the summer of the cows 1999 or 2000, where they had 300 of these sculptures on exhibit. It was fun to see all the differt ideas and decorated bovines. Especially the one that depicted the lantern kicked over that started the great fire. I didn't realize other countries had a passion for cows. lol. Beautiful album. Thanks for sharing! Have a wonderful day! Regards, Susie segseven, OKLAHOMA

Hi there, congratulations on your feature! Very entertaining album! Cheers, Sharon, Brisbane Australia
said smath101
This album is surprising, amusing, funny and well done! Funny enough they have done a similar exhibition with colorful, artistically decorated plastic cows in my town (Zurich, Switzerland) too, a couple of years ago. And last year it was teddy bears to decorate and animate our streets (see my album "The Teddy Bear Season" here on WS). Interesting to learn from Marjie that similar events took place in various cities in the US, too! I just wonder what will come next.... Is there any particular connection between Lisbon and the cows? Finally may I suggest you to complete this album with the names of the last cows? It would be helpful for the viewer to understand! Thank you and best regards from Mike.

Congratulations on having the featured album. I thought it was very interesting. In Seattle, we had the pigs and it was a similar things, decorated by various artist. In Olympia, it was Salmon and in Baltimore last year, it was the blue crabs. All a good way to involve the community and a fun thing to do. Very interesting. Thank you for sharing. Best Wishes, Marjie/Olympia,WA USA

Olá Margarida. Obrigada pelas tuas simpáticas palavras no meu novo album. Já pus o nome científico que me deste para a nespereira, muito obrigada. O nome inglês, segundo a Lorraine (aussiegypsy) é Loquat, e também já lá está. Li no teu profile que este belíssimo álbum com estas espectaculares vacas vai ser distinguido pelo Webshots. Isso é fantástico! Parabéns antecipadamente! Se necessitares de mais dados para as legendas das fotos aqui fica um site que está bastante pormenorizado (tem os nomes dos autores das vacas, os sítios onde estão, etc): http://cowparadelisboa.sapo.pt/Default.aspx?tabid=583 Dá para controlar a velocidade com que passam as imagens também. Fico feliz por, finalmente um português ser distinguido no Webshots! Um abraço, Rosa

Hi Margarida, thanks for visiting my Bulls of Tel-Aviv album and for your kind words in the guestbook. Best wishes, Yair.
said ykarelic4
Hi Margarida, I like these cows! did you see a similar album that I created with bulls in Tel-Aviv? Thanks for visiting my new albums. I was told that Feijoa can be bought in Portugal but is very expensive (almost 11 Euros/kg). Therefore, I don't think that the climate in Portugal is suitable for growing it. Take care, Yair.
