Hi Marita! I would like to invite you to visit a special new album of surf and sunsets that I created to say thank you to all my friends for helping me reach the ONE MILLION views milestone. The album THE INCREDIBLE JOURNEY is a nostalgic journey over the last 14 months but with all new photos. I have spent days making this album, which includes four very special sunset collages that I hope you will want to download for your screensaver. There is also a new lighthouse collage. Thanks so much for your role in helping me achieve such an unbelievable milestone! You are the greatest! And I hope you like the album! ~Randy http://travel.webshots.com/album/562133810yDFqGq?vhost=travel

Thank you so very much, my dear Texan friend, for your generous comment on my Photo of the Day (*Morning Walks* in the album PARTLY FOGGY)! It is very exciting for me to read how much people enjoy seeing the boundless beauty of the southern Oregon coast! But I know you have a special appreciation for it, Marita. It is comments like yours, and very special friends like you, that keep me motivated to bring my camera along when I go outdoors and enjoy the immense beauty here. So thanks again mucho muchos, and I hope you realize all your goals and meet every expectation for 2008! Cheers from coastal Oregon! ~Randy

Hello Marita. the reason why I left W/S is because I went to another site. Fotki. I am not very happy there, so I have decided to come back on trial for the time being. When the summer come's I will become a Premiam member again. I think I missed you all so much. Your site is Beautiful. you must have traveled many miles. When I have time I will be back to write some comments. Bye for now. Big hugs. Ray and Eileen.

As you say such a variety of architecture and you did very well indeed to capture so much of it so well. Adelaide is such a small and quiet city by comparison. I love that you have included details in the comments and I think it adds so very much more to an album. I know it takes a lot of time but it is so worth it. I love to travel the world with WS friends and just wish I had more internet to use and more actual time. I made a big effort to post in my 3 a week album otherwise I would not have picked up my camera very much this year at all. I am hoping for more precious snappin ’ time next year. Thankyou for your encouraging comments this year, I really do appreciate them even though I have been unable to answer in kind as much as I would like. Seasons Greetings Marita to you and your family and Best Wishes for a Safe and Healthy New Year 2008 big hugs.. Susan

Hi Marita, thanks for letting me know about AT. I check the site everyday but I was away during the day today. I wished I could help Majed somehow but I think that it was too much for him with his full time job! AT will be missed, I liked very much the small community where I learned a lot about photography. AS for you, keep up the high spirit and let the hasslers live in their own world, the losers world. Their aim is to drag good people down with them in the abyss!! Regards from Paul.

Awesome job of capturing the architecture in Barcelona. Thank you for sharing. It is something I would never have a chance to see myself. Thank you for your wonderful comments on my pictures. Sorry you had to close your message board. I have run across a couple people like you speak of and it makes me sad to see them on Webshots. I just enjoy sharing and seeing the images of all the wonderful members. Oh, I am no longer a cop and I really was the the good cop. I did it for 13 years as a volunteer and never got paid a penny. I did it because I enjoyed helping people and could not afford to give up my real job. You have a great day.

Dear Marita, how could you know? In this year's spring a friend of mine and I planned to go to Barcelona in autumn. We collected folders and websites and new letters referring to Barcelona, we were absolutely excited. But then ...we couldn't go: such is life :-) And now I discovered your wonderful album, a guided tour full of the most beautiful photos and interesting information. I enjoyed it so much and will watch it as a full size slide show immediately! Thank you so much for sharing just these pictures! (And for visiting my autumnal album!)

Salu, Marita, das war pures Vergnuegen mit Dir durch das herrliche Barcelona zu Schlendern. Auf Gaudis Spuren zu Wandeln. Seit eh liebe ich seine Art, Architektur zu praesentieren. Wie du Dein Album gestaltest hast gefaellt mir besonders gut. Du hast Dir so viel Muehe mit den Texten gegeben. Habe mir jedes Bild lange und gut eingepraegt, werde aber sicher zurueckkommen ein neues (Bsuechli) abstatten. Ein grosses Dankeschoen auch fuer Deine so cheerfully comments in meinem "Jungfrau Album." Was glaubst Du hat mich das gefreut. Jean und ich werden Dich das naechste Mal mitnehmen. In unserer Obhut wirst Du vor lauter "amuesement" das wir miteinander haben, gar nicht merken, dass Du ploetzlich oben stehst. Zum Hyperv. wird es gar nicht erst kommen. Ich bin auch nicht Schwindelfrei. Vergesse nie, wie ich frueher ein paar Mal die letzten Meter auf dem Bauch den Berg, hinauf kroch, oben sitzenblieb, das Sandwich und Fernglas verschmaehte. Auf dem Hintern wieder runter zur Gaudi anderer Wanderer wenn ich nicht das Glueck hatte allein zu sein. Schau doch bitte in mein (last impressions Album in die letzte Seite. Da ist was fuer Dich!!! Bis bald, das hoffe ich wirklich sehr, lass Dich umarmen, bisous, Ton amie Suisse, Evi

Hi Marita, Thanks for the wonderful trip to this marvelous city. The number of majestic buildings is striking. Some of them I remember well from my last trip there in 2000. You brought back some good memories. I wondered though what a Texan cowgirl was looking for in the big city. No horses, no cows, even no chickens. I bet you are very happy back on the ranch now. It is good to see you back in business after a break for a couple of weeks. Thanks for visiting my NY album and all your nice comments. Greetz, Tjebbe

said albertsville 2007.11.26 at 08:15:56 PST

Hello Marita! You did just fine writing those captions. I read them and found them fascinating and educative. Even if a very small percentage of your viewers read the captions it is worth writing them. I am sure you know it is the right way to do an album instead of just leaving the camera generated numbers as titles. So, you did right. Best wishes, Suresh

said suresh_krishna 2007.11.25 at 19:52:40 PST

Hello Marita! Barcelona certainly comes alive in your pictures. It is a beautiful city and you have captured its architecural treasures in your own unique way. The city certainly does abound in very fascinating and well preserved buildings from different schools and periods. It must have been quite a task to decide which one to take in and which to leave out. You have done an exceptional job in painting an arresting view of the city which left me wanting more. I look forward to your next album. Keep well, my freind! Tschuss! Suresh

I am stunned most of all by you remembering all the buildings you were taking pictures of I'm certain I'd look at them on the PC screen and not have a clue LOL I really look forward to seeing more pictures from this memorable trip.

My dear Marita, thank you so much these wonderful shots from this city that I love so much! You didn't miss a thing! Thank you so much also for all you beautiful words in my flowers album! I almost blushed, specially because I'm being such a careless friend to my friends here! But I swear I'm doing the best I can! I have tried to write once or twice in the message board and I couldn't, and I intended to write you a mail, but Hell is full of good intentions, isn't it?:))) I have great news: I have a new camera and a new puppie:)))) And I'm getting famous too! LOL, joking... the fact is that I was contacted by Peg Lopata, from FACES Cobblestone Publishing, and it seems that they are going to use one of my photos from the festival of the trays festival in their January publication! I gave my permission and signed a contract (free, of course, LOL). So, remember if you remember in January, don't miss my arrival to american press, LOL. It seems that it's an article about Summer festivals in Portugal... Here we don't celebrate Thanksgiving (maybe one day, because we had never celebrated Halloween too, and this year I was "assauted" by a bunch of kids asking for candies, LOL). Portuguese people is very permeable to other cultures:) I wish you wonderful Thanksgiving full of peace and joy to you and yours, my dear friend! I'll try to write you with more detail one of these days! Huge hugs and kisses to you, Rosa

Hi Marita; Oh good, it looks like you have been doing some traveling again. I will be back soon to view but I am off in a few minutes for Seattle for the day. I wanted to thank you so much for your visit and your nice messages. I had to laugh about your comment about getting a speeding ticket after you crossed the Oregon/Washington border. Well, the last time I was on my way to Bend, I got nailed the OHP and I really didn't think that was very neighborly either. I was driving my new hybrid and it truly LOVES the road. I quickly learned about auto pilot. hahahaha. I would have loved to have you at our little Oktoberfest party. It was great fun. I am behind the lady in the blue dress... my brother took that photo. Our Mother was German, so it is a very special thing to celebrate our German heritage. In Washington state, we have Leavenworth who does a wonderful job of celebrating Oktoberfest. I hope you will come and take a peak. I think you will love it. http://travel.webshots.com/album/474988155xBUvCS This year, I am planning on driving over the mountains to visit while there is snow on the ground. They have the tree lighting ceremony and that is great fun too. I will be back tonight to see your awesome new album of Barcelona. I can hardly wait. Big hugs, Marjie

said windflowers43 2007.11.20 at 07:21:42 PST

Hi Marita, you must have covered a lot of mileage on foot to cover so much of the architecture of Barcelona. As usual the content and quality of photos are just excellent. Thank you very much for depicting such artistic treasures for us to view. I am looking forward to see your next work on Gaudi's amazing creations. I never explored that side of Spain before, my only experience of Spain are the delightful beaches and the summer holiday ambiances. They were the getaway holidays while living in England! Marita, it was a pleasure viewing your splendid photos and am glad to see more of your photographic works. Regards from you Webshots friend Paul in Canada.
