The festival you saw had a much better backdrop than the one I saw, Yair, which had orange plasic covering a fence around the sculptures so I found it difficult to avoid getting that in my pictures. You had the perfect position. Belated congratulations on such a wonderful album of incredible sand sculptures. Regards...Sue

Hello Yair, my friend. I just stopped here to tell you a million thanks for your well wishes for my challenge win and feature!Sorry for being soooo sllloooooowwwww.The last few days have been wonderfully crazy and exciting! What a thrill not only to be able to enjoy this wonderful city and capture it’s beauty but also to be honoured to win the challenge, especially with ALL these INCREDIBLY talented people entering, and have this Magical Moment on the Thames at night featured! I am so awed by the number of people I’ve never heard of or seen for that matter who stop and leave nice messages, but there are none more special than the ones which come from good friends (and challenge buddies) such as you :D! Thanks so very much, I am happy you enjoyed it too! I am also excited about your trip to iceland, keep me up to date!Shabat Shalom! Marita

Hello my friend, I just love these sand sculpture, as a boy many years ago I can remember watching some being done on a beach in Weymouth Dorset. very clever how it is done, now the White Horse, if you went inside you might come out seeing little green men it is a pub, and a very nice one to, take care Ken

Thanks for posting a message on our site about the Street Painting. The work was finished yesterday. The final images are on the site. Our Arts Festival also has sand sculptures.

Thank you for looking at my sand sculptures and writing about them.I haven't finished labelling them yet.All are from the stories of the Greek Gods etc. I have looked at your photos and they are excellent thank you .Good luck

Hi dear friend: though it's not geology... I fell in love with all that sand (but was at the same time ashamed that there was no trace of us in the long g-e list!). It's difficult to imagine how this often very delicate sculptures could be realized and "maintained in life" - for how long?. All our admiration to these artists (and the photographer!) Are these festivals annual, i.e. present this month? - Best wishes: Kaethi and Henri P.S. Thank you for your kind g-

Dear Yair, Many years ago, before our world was in such disray, I wanted to visit your Country. I had a Lady friend who was from Israel. We went to School together. She would tell me about growing up there, and how beautiful it was. Now I see what she was talking about. I hope someday our world will be peaceful, and I am able to travel to Israel. Which was a young girls dream. Sincerely, Susan

swtsoftcountry 2006.06.07 at 11:40:23 PDT
My congratulations, it's a great album. We have here in Canada/British Columbia/Harrison Hot Springs every year the World Championships of Sand Sculptures, it's a fantastic event. Thanks for your kind word on my site. Greetings from Canada - Lea

Interesting pictures! I heard that Israel is flat. I use to work for a company from Israel that spun off of Rafta (spelling!), a company that built military planes. I know Israel is an interesting place to take pictures… I would love to go there and take some…. I have seen your pictures before especially this album Most of my pictures are mostly around the USA and Canada, with some from England and Scotland Andy Bratton

Hi Yair, you expressed interest in seeing my Texas Sand Festival photos, so thought I'd let you know that I've now posted mine. Pls stop by for a look. It was our first time to see sand sculpting and we were awed to see what talent can produce in such a short time with only sand/water. Having seen your album, it was also interesting to note the difference in the general demeanor of the two events. As always, I enjoy your work-thoroughly enjoyed your new Pineapple guava album. Lived in Hawaii some years ago and familiar with guava, but not this....sounds tasty and what a beautiful flower! EJ/Texas

rossflah 2006.05.07 at 09:05:32 PDT
Greetings, Yair. You have made a very impressive record of these sand sculptures. Good multiple photo coverage of each one. Thanks for the visit. I am always amazed at the imaginations of sand sculptors and sidewalk chalk artists. Thanks for your kind comments on my autumn album. I was lucky to be in the right place at the right time for those shots in Lithia Park's Japanese Garden. Linden (aarundell) My good friend Yair Strauss is a conductor of area classical orchestras.

aarundell 2006.05.06 at 15:38:30 PDT
Hello Yair, This is a fantastic album! I have never seen anything like this, and didn't know that one could do so much with sand. It would be much fun to attend one of these events. Thanks for visiting my album, and the kind words. I look foward to seeing some of your other albums - Steve

Hi Yair, First of all hope that you and yours are OK - I just heard about another blast in Tel Aviv. I don't have my old pictures any more - If I had, I would have uploaded them already. And I was shocked, as you said, to see my statistics today. Wow!.. Best to you, Roza

rozalia421 2006.04.17 at 05:14:48 PDT
Hi Yair, what a great album! While I am totally useless at making sandcastles I am a very good fan of those who can do it. That reminds me, I have slides of a sandcastle competition I attended outside of Vancouver that I'll get into my albums asap. Happy Easter, Leslie

Hi Yair - thank you visiting my Sussex sunsets album, and for your kind comments. These sand sculpture photographs are amazing! We had a sand sculpture festival in Brighton, UK, last summer too, which was amazing. Unfortunately, the people I entrusted my camera films to ruined the film, so its nice for me to see some photo's and appreciate the detail the artists include in their sculptures. All the best. Wendy

Hi Yair, Thanks for visiting my garden album. I see you've got some beautifully done flower albums as well. I also browsed your parade and sandcastle albums with great interest and see others that I'd like to come back and visit when time allows. This weekend we'll be attending the annual sandcastle festival at Port Aransas, Texas in hopes of photographing some interesting sculpture too. If you're interested, please check back in a week or so and I'll post some photos of the event. Best regards from Texas, EJ

Hi Yair, thank you for sharing with us the wonderful work of these sand's creative artists. There is something I love about there work, beyond their talent: they know that it will not remain and, even so, they give their best... I appreciate that very much. Some of these sculptures here are quite beautiful and your shots great, as always. Thank you also for your words on my guestbook. All the best for you, Rosa

G'day again Yair - I'm back for another wander through your intriguing albums - this time Moeraki Boulders and the Sand Scuptures. Coming here is like opening presents ... I know they will be great but when opened ... they are all better than the expectations! Thanks again for sharing. Lorraine

Yair: very nice pictures you have, my favorite was the sand sculptures. It was very kind of you to leave a note. As I was putting you down as one of my favorites I touched the wrong botton and I erased your message which made me very sad. I was actually touched that somebody, from so far away would send me a note. Thanks again anyway Aniko from NY

Yair, it reminds me of when I went to Prince Edward Island years ago. They have a beach where they build sand castles for competition. The sand is a strange shade of red. I was enchanted. Lorr, MA USA

Dear Yair! Thank you for comments to my album. It is so pleasant to hear from far country. The daughter of my friend from Tallinn a month ago visited your country. She is working in traveling agency and she was excited a lot about beauty of your country and cathedrals…. I was living in Tallinn Estonia about 25 years and in Slovenia only 1,5 year. I like to see a beauty around… I have visited your albums and was excited the best way. For me it was opened through your pictures the new vision of the nature. Your collection of bees shows somehow deep feeling of nature. A lot of new ideas. Your collection of owls. It was opened for me a lot of things I have never seen and it was opened new vision of the world. Thank you for energy you give to the world. How nice that photography sharing give us chance to contact with deep personalities and to experience bright emotions. Light do not need a lot of words but a lot of love. Who see through the heart, see everywhere LOVE. Warm wishes from Ljubljana, Slovenija. Happy New Year Natalja

Hi Yair, Now I am visiting another awesome featured album of yours. You must be a pro. I am overwhelmed by the kind words you have written to me in the past. I really would love to visit your country. It would be marvellous. They used to make guided trips there earlier. Now mostly to Eilat and I would rather go to more original places. merike dot tervonen at kolumbus.fi is my address if you like to write to me, you seem like a kindred spirit. On the other hand, people have more important things to do than write to old ladies in Finland so never mind if you are too busy. I will keep viewing your marvellous pics anyway. Lots of regards,

Hello, Yair. I noticed you viewed my pictures, and I decided to view some of yours, and I have to say, they're much better than mine, and my favorite album is this sand sculptures one. Amazing what things people can do with sand, isn't it? Take care-Funkmon, from Detroit.

Hi Yair and greetings from Kentucky USA. I have enjoyed this album. Isn't it something people have such talent? I sometimes wonder if I have any. I see this was "featured" and let me say, Congratulations, even though it was some months ago. Take care, let me hear from you from time to time. May the New Year bring PEACE, to your part of the world. Take care friend... Darrell

My favorite is "Universal Beauty". It's fun. This reminds me that we share a common thread with people overseas (I am in the USA). I think it is an unfortunate common beleif, here, that Americans are way above just about everyone else. We are paid more for work here than other places, and it is a common conception that that is right. This art makes me feel people on the other side of the world are capable of as fine or finer work than our men. Americans try to hold on to our weath, but I'm glad exporting, gifting, and such happens so we can share a bit. God and Jesus'' blessings to all :-).

Shalom Yair, thank you for inviting me to see this album of yours....kinda puts my sand album to shame really! But different levels....hey and sand quality maybe?!!!! :) Its so amazing the details in each of them. At the one held in Cannon Beach, Oregon they had a time limit of less than 4-6 hours to complete their entry. Do you know what the time span to work on their masterpieces took? Thank you for sharing such a fascinating event, your photos truly capture enormous detail that certainly does the artist justice in what they were trying to convey. Have a wonderful week and many thanks also for taking the time to view my albums. All the best and many happy blessings and peace, amy

Hi Yair, There is a lot of talent hidden in those sculptures. They are a lot of work. I'm glad I wasn't a judge in that festival, I wouldn't be able to decide which I loved best. Great job! Vicky

Hi Yair, Great photos thank you so much for sharing, There is some real talent here. Makes my childhood sandcastles look rather feeble. The real talent though is your magical photography. Thanks for calling at my site and you kind words Chris Charlie and Jay

Hi Yair, this is a really enjoyable album on a fascinating subject! As someone that used to sketch and paint I marvel at the fact that these people can do such wonderful work just to watch it be washed away so quickly. You have done a marvelous job capturing the images and presenting them to us! Including the artists names and countries was an added bonus! Well done!! Jeanie

wow, nice pictures and nice sand sculptures! I was this May in Scheveningen/The Hague/ North Sea. There was another festival there on the same subject ... but ... I think what you shown us is completly different! Good job Yair! OOps, I forgot to tell, this is adrian from bucharest, you can see another pictures ... not big deal ... whatever. :)
