Ruggero, WOW, Oh my, I am at a loss for words for this latest creation of yours! YOU ARE THE MASTER!! The vivid beauty & colors made me want to jump thru into the photos. I salute you !!! MILLE GRAZIE Cathy

Ruggero! Me again!! LOL :o)b I forgot to tell you last time I wrote, that I was at first viewing your fabulous collection as a slide show, but I had to stop and start over. Manually moving forward to the next image. as the slide show did not give enough time for me to examine and study (and pay homage) to each piece of art. It was as if I were in a grande museum and strolling from place to place for each masterpiece. Just great and grande!!! Thank you for sharing your expertise with me!! I enjoyed every moment of it!!! :o)b barbara

Very nice album (thanks to Gabriela who sent me here), I especially enjoyed the boats and buildings, and my favorites are the blue and red doors. But most of all the warmth and the sunshine making everything so bright. Thanks for sharing, Ina in Canada

Caro Ruggero, I am aware of your new album and the opening shot is just marvellous! I only managed to peruse it, just to see what's in store! I'll be back, as it is now 2:35AM in Japan.Best regards from Gabriela

Dear Ruggero. You're getting better and better every day. This new album is a real treasure. A lot of pictures there should be listed in the webshots "professional& quot; collections. What are they waiting for? PP

said pimbotin 2004.07.13 at 09:25:27 PDT

Hi, Ruggero. Your photos are simply DAZZLING! I can't find any other word that could describe them. The vivid colors, the composition. Simply beautiful. You're a genius with your camera, a painter of light. I hope to see more of this. Ciao e complimenti da un'ammiratrice dei tuoi lavori. Carmela

INCREDIBLE!!!!#32&quo t;Little Beauty on the Beach!!!!!!!Big beauty,(all this album),in our eyes and hearts dear FRIEND RUGGERO. I hate to be late...I did not see it in time to be the first to congratulate you master of camera and heart of beauty, nature and colors!!!# 20 FANTASTIC!!!!,# 41 BREATHTAKING..19, 45, 61,62.59 ....#71 GORGEOUS, 82. What else can I say that has not been said? As Orly says, you should have been featured so many times already, but people at Webshots have some eye problems I suggest them to visit "Lenscrafters& quot; or some good eye doctor ...man ...they are really having some big problems with their visual organs!!!!!!!But what matters at all is that you KNOW!!(and we all know) that your photos are fantastic and the way you put them together and the descriptions is more just clicking around with a stupid little machine....it needs more than a finger ...heart and brain my friend that's what it is...and that is what you have. I would like to write the word that you taught me some time ago,but for reason of good taste I don't write it OK.(you know what I mean???) And that is that. Abraccios/kathy/caterina

Ciao Ruggero, it is an album of light and a perfect invitation to take vacations; As always yours pictures are bright and the angles of caption always perfect; You often success in aerial views, have you a little plane? I think we are very similar in our views of the reality! My favorite pictures in this album are 1 3 12 17 20 23 31 37 41 43 50 (for the sky) 61 & 63 73 80 83. Congratulations my brother for the generous and nice work! I am writing from Pierre's portable, my computer is out! Thank you for kind messages for my featured album of June 11 (we left Paris the day before!!!) I discovered everything coming back home and many people will not understand I have not answered them!; I have three or four more albums of 100 photos to depose on India plus 10 on other subjects and I already reach 2300 on 3000 permitted; During this last one month vacations, a 5600 km drive on mountains little roads mainly, I took 1640 pictures, half of the archi wonderful & wild flowered Corsica, and half of the Italian wonders of Toscana, Emilie , Milano, Piemonte and France; Corsica is a pure jewel I hope you have visited, for me it was a first complete exploration, all days driving on all existing roads to discover, but I will probably return there for real vacations perhaps to live there definitively! I cannot understand now how I have waited 58 years before visiting such a perfect paradise located in my Country! Have a nice day; Jacques

Hello, my dear European guide! You certainly have expanded your gorgeous touring service. After France, now we come to Spain. I'm saying the truth. I have really a deep feeling. Every trip you are leading us to ..... so well organized, well presented, neat, stunning, beautiful, colourful, harmonic, peaceful, such good weather, such brilliant sunshine, blue sky, blue waters ..... from big old cities to small quiet villages ..... You have such talent, discovering BEST OF THE BEST in every single corner of every single place you have visited, and most important, so well presented to us, giving us such a wonderful, comfortable and enjoyable trip travelling alongside with you. In this way, I can sit back and relax, and seeing BEST OF THE BEST of every destination. I like every single picture of this album, and of course for all of your other albums. You may hardly believe, if I can only select one, and only one, picture from this album ..... #32 the little beauty! The way this photo leading me to a deep thinking of childhood, so innocent! Deeply thank you very much my friend for sharing with us all your impressive trips. Just one more query I have to bring out, you must have an absolute good relationship with God, or you must have some ultra power ..... the stormy, rainy or cloudy weather will always stay away from you whereever you go! Thank you very much for all your nice comments to my BW album. Truly, God Bless You my dear friend! CS

said csfoto 2004.07.12 at 18:23:17 PDT

Ruggero, this album is simply breathtaking! Each photos is gorgeous! I especially like: 016 - Cadaques - A view from the sea, 027 - Cap de sant Sebastià - looking at sea, and: 042 - Punta de la Torre - a window over the sea. Incredible work! Thank you for taking me on a tour of Spain via your camera lens. Candi

said candistackable 2004.07.12 at 15:32:19 PDT

Another charming album of a glimpse of Costa Brava through the eyes of a genius! I loved the artistic shots of the windows, to the details of the boats and houses. Showing intimate details makes it more personal, I feel! Thanks for sharing another brilliant album and can't wait for the next album to be created! Cheers my friend, amy

said kester110 2004.07.12 at 12:58:20 PDT

Ciao Ruggero - I am back after that wonderful trip through the Costa Brava. My pen ran out of ink jotting down favorites, there are so many. The composition is excellent and the colors are delightful. The first one I went back to for my desktop was #62 - the beautiful orange boat that looks like a giant leaf! I downloaded that and many others, including your favorite beach. I love the foot shaped rock on the beach. Thanks for this delightful journey, amico mio. Un altro grand'abbraccio, Beth

said bvillanyi 2004.07.12 at 10:48:21 PDT

Ciao Ruggero! What a great album. I have only looked at the thumbnails but can tell already I will love it. Now I will sit and enjoy the slideshow, then come back with more comments. Thanks for visiting my garden - wish you and your family could visit it in person :-) Un grand'abbracio, Beth

said bvillanyi 2004.07.12 at 10:07:08 PDT

Hi Ruggero!!!! Thanks for your comments and visiting my albums! I REALLY appreciate your friendship! Honestly, the comments coming from a photographer of your caliber really make me smile! I keep thinking that a feature would be nice (I am so pleased with the Hibiscus collection - Mother Nature has TRULY out-done herself there!!!) but it seems it will never happen. I will just keep happy dancing anyway!!! :o)b barbara

said pompeii7 2004.07.12 at 08:26:28 PDT

Good morning Ruggero. It's so nice to wake up and to see a new album from you. Wonderful done and I agree I prefer the little hidden villages too, so peaceful and relaxing. Love taking my virtual traveling tour through your eyes and lenses. Thank you it's always appreciated and truly enjoyed. take care your friend Marietta

said traumasister 2004.07.12 at 05:58:55 PDT

Ciao, Ruggero ! Another masterpiece, my friend ! I viewed your album with the slideshow and was surprised to reach the end of it so qickly, although the number of pics is high ! The lanscapes and colors are wonderful, Ruggero, and I loved all the photos of your album. Cadaques pics are my favorites, but all are beautiful. Each time I discover one of your album, it's a pleasure. thanks for sharing so wonderful pics with us, Ruggero, and have a nice week, friendly, Chantal

said ambra2000 2004.07.12 at 02:42:34 PDT

RUGGEROOOOOO! I have so many things to say and not sure where to start... so I'll just start some how... Well I was very thrilled to see that you have a new album and moreover, I finally got to view it soon after it opens! I was also glad to receive an answer about how was your vacation in Spain… and what an answer!! I enjoyed it so much from the fantastic cover photo till the very end. As someone not aware of the big hotels, crowd beaches and crazy night life of Costa Brava, your big hotels, crowd beaches and crazy night life have stolen my heart… Love all your Sea Colors photos, and in general the colors in this album are spectacular. The photos of Cadaques are all extraordinary. It surprises me that Dali made his weird paintings living in such a perfectly beautiful and peaceful place. Don’t get me wrong, I adore his paintings. Anyway, really a series of excellent shots, the White Paradise, the colorful windows, the glances to the sea, and of course, the amazing Walking Over Roofs photo (I guess one should be careful not to fall off the roof with such a scenery!) All through the album really wonderful and enjoyable photos with nice comments as usual… and then a surprise! Your have dedicated me Punta de la Torre - a place to enjoy the gorgeous beauty of sea. :-o I can’t tell you how moved I am! That is sooo sweet. It was one about dozen photos I downloaded from the album which is a very rare event, since I have thousands of wallpapers and hardly download any more. I love the cactus by the sea and the cactus flowers. There are such cacti in Israel but I’ve never seen them by the sea and it looks stunning. I love the perspectives of the boats in Calella de Palafrugel and Cala de la Fosca. The Agulla de Castell photos, eg 71 and 73, are breathtaking… In a way I empathize with your wife and you… It must be hard returning from such a remarkable vacation (though Lombardia is no less beautiful). However your pictures must be a wonderful way to enjoy those places again and your kindness allow us all to enjoy them too. I join Sanjay and cross my fingers that this album will be featured as soon as possible. Unfortunately the best albums are not always featured, otherwise you should have already been featured several times, but I’m sure your turn will arrive. I hope it will happen soon so that more people will enjoy your photos and so that you can be even more famous :-))) Ciaooooo Have a great day! Your friend Orly

Hi Roger! I'm back again..lol. Just let you know that it's 5.30PM here. I'm preparing to go home...lol. Had a hard day with work! Gotta get some rest. SJ

Hi Roger! Thanks very much for your kind comments on my Buddha album. I guess this is the first time I get to sign your album first! And I truly believe that you'll have it featured in a matter of days from now... Well..my friend, very rarely I've seen people who could capture the beauty of the nature like you. You are seeing the real thing when you look at your subjects. I could almost feel it by just looking at these beautiful photographs. As for my favourites here, I'm having a hard time making up my mind as I'm taking some time off at the office just to view your album...lol. Here I go making a quick selection for today. They're 044, 062, 068, 069, 070 & 077 Alright my friend, I'll come later for more. Cheers! Sanjay
