Hello Paul...This album also popped up on "My Friends Stuff" so I have had a look and it is very well done, We should start calling your "The Birdman Of Webshots"...Every picture is wonderful and the captions make it all the more enjoyable...Thanks for the smiles my friend...

Hi Paul, I didn't see this album until it showed up on my alerts thing this morning. Wow it's gorgeous!!! Love the captions they fit so well. Hope you and Margaret are well it was lovely to have a quick chat the other day. Take care my friends Love and Hugs Chris and Jay

Perception of beauty through the senses is the trigger on your plane for subsequent inner perceptions.

Oh, Paul, I can't begin to tell you how wonderful the pictures of the babies are. They are precious. I have been in NC for the last week. Charlie is at home, and he said he hasn't seen the swans at all. (And he said my garden needs attention!) I'll be going home next week. Your babies are adorable, and I love, love your titles. The close ups are phenominal! You will have such fun watching the kids grow up and turn into beautiful adults. It's so much fun watching the parents train the babies. Won't be long before you have to start another album for these georgeous creatures! Louise

It is a beautiful album. Your pictures are absolutely wonderful and clear.It made me so sad that some cruel person could destroy the eggs. It is hard to believe. Our swan pair has been rather elusive this year. I see a single swimming around occasionally, so I am hoping there is a nest and they will be hatching soon. That is going to be one thing I miss the most in North Carolina. The swans. So, I had to download most of your photos. Thanks for such a lovely collection. Louise

said greenfairways 2005.05.17 at 14:45:45 PDT

Hi Paul,these pictures are so good,I envy you being so near to this,we have a few swans on the River Dee but not many at all,thankyou for your comments in my albums,if you come up to Chester email me and I will show you around,and because I live in Chester I go in the Cathedral for free,just a donation. Have a think anyway but I am away May 1st for 4 weeks,we are going to Vancouver and a cruise to Alaska for 7 days whilst there,you will find some beautiful photo's if you look at "mypupk&quot ; and "islandlady1540& quot;,we are meeting up when we go to Canada,if send your email I will email when I get back home,take care Ann (Chester) ( annedm1@tiscali.co.uk )

Great work, Paul, congratulations. Your albums are interesting and unique, the close-ups are dazzling! The Swan album is the best that I have seen! I see swans as the most elegant of birds, and you have captured the beauty and grace so well! Thanks for sharing! "tillie&quot ; of Pennsylvania.

Hello Paul, a giant album among albums, one of beauty and poise and you've captured much with descriptions and comments, very nice. Are you a metalsmith by hobby?, nice work; your macros in your flower albums are quiet and not busy, a good showing here, descriptions too.Downloaded "Reflections of Living", "St. Mary's Church at Tutbury" and "Nelson's Lions". Litchfield Cathedral is quite beautiful and I'm into old English architecture, do appreciate the look of the old, this suits me fine and dandy. A nice showing all-around. Congratulations on your feature of swans today and I thank you for showing us the rest of your life up to now through a digital. Visit my site wherever you'd like. Best regards from the southern Oregon coast. Ron

Hi, congratulations on your featured album on the swans today. It is a very well put together album, and well deserved of a feature. I have a couple of albums on swans, one by mum and me and an album called birds by me, but not just swans in that one. Enjoy your big day, all the best, George in the Scottish isle of Shetland

said gpleask 2005.03.21 at 15:31:18 PST

Congratulations on your featured album! It seems to be unique--at least,I haven't seen any others of just swans,so far! I especially like the ones with the sun shining through the feathers,making them seem translucent.Good job!-Nancy/B.C./Canada

What a wonderful way to spend your retirement. Swans are one of the most beautiful birds. Your photos are fantastic. But, please be careful. Walking around with a digital can be habit forming, and as far as I know, there is no cure for this addiction. Congratulations on a very well deserved, lovely feature. Enjoy your day! Louise

said greenfairways 2005.03.21 at 05:58:48 PST

Now that is what I call retirement well spent!!! Congrats on your retirement and your feature today! Beautiful pictures that capture striking images of one of God's most graceful creatures. This must have been a fun day...it shows. Thanks for sharing. Hope you relax and enjoy both the day and your retirement. Keep those photos coming. -debbie from dallas, tx

Great album Paul and it really transported me back to the old country. Its so nice to see white swans again (ours are all black apart from one small colony about 100 kms east of Perth) I particularly like the way you have managed a dark background and this shows these beautiful birds off to perfection. Congratulations on being featured and you will be hearing more from me as I work my way through the rest of your albums - a great chance to see how England has changed since we left. All the best, Peter in Western Australia

said georgieboy98 2005.03.21 at 04:30:40 PST

Hi Paul, I'm happy to be the first to sign your Swans guest book. What a really great album this is, I love the way you've caught so many moods and moves of these beautiful birds. I especially like the black backgrounds, because it highlight the swans so completely; It's a good technique. All the best from Keith.
