  • Well...I must admit they made fantastic reconstruction work here....for the sake of tourism, of course! There were only ruins covered by weeds in the late 70ies! And now.....what a difference! Your presentation is exquisite, compositions that got many "ahhh!" and "ohhh!" from both of us. Bravo, Yair! Friendliest regards, Gabriela

  • Dear Yair, one more fascinating album! I think i especially like the angles you are taking the pictures, and of course you have a wonderful technical abilities. I must say that I learned a lot by just following your albums. I actually took night shots in my neighborhood to capture the Christmas lights using your advise, and the results are not bad. I invite you to come and visit. Tirza

  • Hello Yair! The fortresses which have a town within are always quaint, romantic and offer a fabulous treasure for a skilled photographer. The Râşnov fort is a case in point. What a delightful place this is! And, completely deserted virtually giving you a free run of the place. Your photographs bring out every nuance and every important perspective of the city within the fort. This is my kind of place. I am happy you got there and took all these splendid pictures and shered them with us. My best compliments. Suresh

  • Hello Yair: This too is a gem of an album, and well done, as usual. Loved the tour you took us on. You certainly had great light to work with. Thanks for your compliments in this year's Autumn album. I hope to post a follow up soon. Perhaps one year you can head over this way and experience a Canadian autumn. All the best to you, Ron.

  • Yair, this is another lovely addition to your Romania collection. Lighting is simply the best feature in this album, and you got it at its best. And you also provide so much history about this place that, I have to be honest, as a Romanian, I did not know. Looking forward to see more soon, as you travel through it. Wishing you the best, Maria

  • Good evening Yair: This third Romania album is enriching, too (how could it be otherwise!). Once again we see and read about a place 99% of us have never heard of. Each picture has its sense, its meaning. Thank you for this welcome lesson! Kaethi and Henri
