  • Yair, you have done it again! Fabulous album of such beautiful art. I will forever think of Israel as the "Centre" of the art world. You have such marvellous and varied exhibitions there, and each one is fascinating, creative, and so colourful. Thank you so much for sharing these wonders with all of us at webshots. Mouse

  • An interesting album, as always is with your exhibitions albums, I enjoyed my visit. People of Israel are very creative and they seem to like to express their thoughts and feelings in so many indirect ways. Nice, Maria

  • Hello Yair, what a great idea for a centennial celebration. Looks like creative minds went wild and you have captured their efforts well. Beautiful album. Reminds me of something they do every year in Ottawa, Canada for the tulip festival - artists get to decorate a few hundred large tulip statues (see my ''Tulips of Friendship'' album.) Thanks for sharing these pics - Have a great day, my friend...Dick, Canada

  • A splendid album, Yair! When the imagination of artists run wild, they do come out with the most imaginative and unusual creations. This exhibition must have been a joy to walk around. You have captured the essence and the ambience so well. Congratulations on this well photographed album. Best wishes, Suresh

  • Dear Yair: this again is a very special album. But this sentence in comments is so common that one is tempted to analyse "why?" Is the author the reason? No doubt for a big part. But we realize these reports originate in a country that is extraordinarily rich in artistic or at least outstanding performances of very different kinds. As concerns the present album: a luminous idea to have got contributors not necessarily artists, but visibly passionate and inspired by the subject! Thank you!!!

  • Hello Yair! I suppose you'll be still on vacation but I decided to drop by for a visit and I discovered this album that I hadn't seen yet. So very creative and colorful! I bet you had a terrific time shooting all these original oranges:) Thank you so much for sharing with us, my friend. I hope these two weeks in a more fresh land will help you to resist to the rest of Summer in your country! Here, in these last days the heat is not so much... And we have wind... not good to go the beach... have a great rest of vacation and a happy and safe return! We miss you! Rosa
