These are amazing! I just saw them today. And I was thinking how fun one of these would be for a photo icon for a webshots profile :) ~Sue
said sueberger
Fascinating Yair! Thank you for collecting each one, a portrait of immense intrigue and fascination. It is interesting to see how unique and creative each one is realised. Some are quite beautiful! And I love the mold used for the masks. The masks suspended with the ocean as a backdrop look suspended in time... Sharon

Dear Yair, this is an amazing collection!!! I admit I've never thought of such a gallery! Some of them are really works of art! I am sure every one of these masks has a message, if we could only understand them all. Regards, Gabriela
said shukun20
Hi Yair, Culture has not been lost in Israel. Wonderful show of art in such a unique medium. It must have been wonderful to stroll along the sea in such a beautiful setting and enjoy the artwork. I also enjoyed browsingthrough your album very much. Thank you for sharing your latest album with us. Wishing you all well, Ray
said rrayr55
Hi Yair! Another great, creative album! I really enjoyed to see all the photos. My favorites are: 2, 5, 18, 22, 24, 27, 29, 32, 37, 38, 46, 51, 52, 81 and 82! This is about masks, of course, because photos are all excellent and favorites:). Well done, as always. Take care, Rosa
said quartominguante
Hello Yair. What a wonderful collection. These artists have such expression with their work. I really liked #5, 12 and 81! Others were on this list, but I did not want to just put numbers in this message. I also want to thank you for visiting my featured Crater Lake ablum this morning. You were actually the first person today to congratulate me. Thank you very much for your kind and generous words of encouragement. They are always welcomed. Best wishes and God Bless, Lynn
said 1seahag
Thanks for the info. 1.5 meters or just under five feet... that is even larger than I thought. I did check the backgrounds for size reference, but still wasn't sure, because of the distance of some of the other objects. I LOVE your palm mask (#33) composition... just to name one. Leila tov.

Hi Yair, Yehudit calling in again from the relatively cool mountain. I sent the link to your mask album to my artist girlfriends. A resounding wow was heard across the globe. One question was: "how big are these sculptures?"

Hi Yair, Another fabulas exhibition your country offers, very well presented as usual by your apt photographic skills. Great album thanks again for sharing - Stephen
said zanegol04
Hi Yair, I haven't visited yet but I hope to visit later this week. I guess it won't be terrible if we'll both have albums of the same event. As for photo messages - I think the best thing would be to enable photo messages but to be able to see them all in one place. Have a great week! Orly
said orlyyahalom
Hi Yair, As many times in the past, you have found a wonderful theme and made it into a beautiful album. Some great works of art here, and always surprising to see what the artists have made of the same face. Very nice to see the sea at the background of some of the masks. Great job as usual. Belated Thanks for all your kind and sympathetic comments on my guestbook. Cheers, Orly
said orlyyahalom
This is a wonderful album, only wish I could have seen them myself too. Keep on clicking. Jan in Ca.
said downtheroad101
Shalom Yair, thank you so much for bringing the exhibit right here into our home!!! Did you take a photo of every mask featured? I LOVE IT! ... I'd seen a promo on TV and wanted to view more, but had little desire to travel to any area even more hot and humid than the mountains have been. And now I don't have to! Your photos are beautiful. They would make a great collage project... showing 90 facets of life, from the mundane to the very intricate, coming together to form one big mask poster. A kaleidoscope of human moods, emotions and thoughts, not hidden behind but displayed right on the masks... Very cool. What a yofie day this is turning out to be. I hope for you as well. Shavua tov. Yehudit.
said ahalevy
Hi Yair, I love these images. So unusual but very vibrant and recorded expertly. It's very difficult to tell the size of them though, as there's nothing close by to give a sense of perspective other than the palm trees in the distance. How tall are they? A very, very enjoyable album. Thanks for visiting me again and leaving such kind words. It's always good to hear from you. All the best, Craig.

Hi Yair, these are great! Very entertaining. This must have been a big undertaking to organize and display all of these very creative masks. It reminds me of the decorated cows we had in Chicago a few years ago. Many thanks for your kind comments in my album from Japan. Best, Marisa
said go_family
Hi Yair. Great collection of masks and each one so very different and unusual from the next. Very colourful too, which has helped brighten all a dull and wet day here in England. Oh to be back in Vegas where it's lovely and HOT. Best wishes, Jayne/West Midlands, UK :) xx

said sallap
Hello Yair..Judging by the other comments you have here, I would say this album is a real WINNER. I never cease to be amazed by the fantastic artistry of your countrymen and women. My most favourite mask is #87 because I LOVE butterflies however, they are all completely unique and wonderfully colourful. This album should definitely be featured. Thank you so much for bringing these marvellous photo's to webshots so that we may all enjoy the outstanding art and your photography. Well done!!! Mouse in Canada

Hi Yair, yes I came, I saw, and I won looking at your album. I do like the fantasy face, but the triumphant face is the yellow one with black pins, it is sadistically creative. Thanks for this entertaining album. Best Regards. Majed
said majedanani
Hi Yair, thanks for inviting me to see your new album - all those masks represent many hours of work. I really like #46, "The Pain Beneath," by Ella Alterman. If the little note feature was active, you would have many more individual masks noted (and an overflowing Inbox). Thank you for sharing with us, Judy

Hi Yair, Well what do I say, Where do you keep finding all these brilliant albums from, These masks are superb, and trust you yair to go and photograph them all. I just wonder how peoples creativity and imagination comes from. Ii has been a real pleasure to have a look at them. thankyou for that, have fun and do take care Ken
said hircock100
Hi Yair, Glimpse to the sea is another wonderful album, the idea to shot these sculptures like masks gazing at the see or at you revealing their feeling and imprison of surprises or fear…I like this album…it is a celebration of colored sculptures like followers in a garden…and the meaning for every piece is deferent depend on its own vision. Best wishes. Ayyad
said ayyadalnimer
Hej again. After a second time I choose one more to my favorites. #46. I´m sure every mask have something to say and this I understand. It´s easy to put on a mask in front of others. For good and bad. Thanks again for this album. Anne-Marie
said anmali
Hello Yair! This is a fabulous album of colour and creativity! Some of the masks are pure delight to watch. It is amazing to see how an artist's mind works in creating such works of art. You have more than just justice in photographing the, You brought life to them and joy to us. I wanted to comment on some individual pictures, but webshots would not allow me to do so. Best wishes, Suresh
said suresh_krishna
Hej Yair. What a wonderful album. Hard to choose a single one but yet I say #29. I think it´s because one always have to think about the time instead of doing what you like. There is always something you must do that make you miss special moments in life. Maybee the artist ment something totaly different. I really hope for this excellent album to be featured soon. Warm regards, take care and have a nice weekend. Anne-Marie

Hi Yair, this is a brilliant album, a lot of work must have gone into producing them all. Take care, Pete.

Hi Yair! Thank you for the kind words when visiting my 'storm' album. Fantastic idea here! Again you have presented me with a wonderful exhibition that I never would have had the opportunity to experience. If I am to be honest, "The Dreamer" is the mask I wear everyday! Beautiful job once again!! Jeanie

said ittybittynickel
Yair: What a phenomenal collection. My favorite is #12. But of course I really likd 21, 46 and 48 a whole lot. Was it a contest? I assume each one is by a different artist right? Are they done by a particular school, or just any one who wanted to join in. I am an artist. Please visit my site and leave me a message all about this, if you would. Thank you for sharing this with the world. What a joy. Webshots sure should feature this album.

Hello Yair, what an assortment of masks. So many colors and even though it looks like the same mask it's been decorated so differently.Very interesting....Claudette
said mamabear250
Hello Yair, Well, what can I say ... you have created another very interesting album, each photo is a lesson of photo-graphical perfection. Some of the masks depicted the trauma of the troubled times there. Some showed beautiful artistry, some ... well .... (Sorry, to your country's artists) .... But, I think I could have done just as well if not better. (and I'm no artist). I loved the background of the sea with the people out there enjoying themselves ... it is very good to see that. Stay safe my friend, as always take care, Warmest of Hugs, Trish
said leckie45
Shalom Yair! I love your new album of masks. I especially loved the Fantasy, the Dreamer, and the mosaics. The art work in these masks is brilliant. What an unusual album from a very sweet friend.
