    Charlie the Cheeky Monkey says:

    "Even though she didn't consider me a "flickr friend" until I nagged her about it so I could write this very testimonial... Kim rocks.

    I'm sure she'll remove me as a contact after I post this but so be it.

    If you've seen her stream you already know what I am about to say.

    Kim is to awesome as France is to wine. Srsly. There is other awesome out there, but if you want the best quality awesome, you still have to travel to Kimville... Or something.

    I think you get what I mean.

    DEAL WITH IT."

    "One word sums Kim up perfectly: Enthusiasm. Kim does nothing half-way ... it's all or nothing, which is one of the many things I love about her. Enthusiasm for life, photography, children, family, and friends. How fortunate for me to have stumbled upon this wonderful woman in the world of flickr. Thank you for your encouraging friendship and support, Kim!"

    "Kim is one of my favorite contacts. She is like a ball of positive energy that everyone wants to get close to... her energy radiates around everything that she does including her photography. She loves experimenting and always takes her shots to a complete different dimension. I really enjoy going through her stream every day and see what's up in Obit's world! :) I was lucky enough to meet her for 5 minutes in Venice beach and I can confirm that her positive vibes are contagious! Thanks Kim for being such an inspiration & for your great contribution to the LA flickr group."

    "Whether in portraits, photos of scenery, or in pics of big scary spiders, Kim conveys an organic sense of mood in her shots like few others. Her ability to inject a sense of humor into shots of otherwise 'normal' subject matter makes each of her new uploads a must-see. And her professional work is stunning! I have no doubt that shooting with her is every bit as fun (and informative) as it looks."

    "I've been thinking about this one for awhile now. How do you describe someone with an unbridled natural talent, so skilled in the art of photography, that it on more then just a few occasions leaves me feeling speechless, and yes, even at times a little jealous? Orbitgal, without a doubt in my mind, harbors such a skill. When it comes to photography, she is just that good, and bar none one of the best I have ever bore witness too. I genuinely feel honored knowing her."

    "I have been following Orbitgal's photo stream for around 7 months now. And as others have said, I have seen her photos getting better, and better every day! But right now, with her new DSLR, they are at their best! Orbitgal is getting hired to do jobs, she is starting a photography business, and more! This all shows how great of a photographer she truly is.

    Orbitgal has a style of photography that is hard to copy. Some have tried, and failed miserably. She is a wonderful photographer, and a master at photoshop. Some people overdo the processing, but I think Orbitgal does just the right amount. Her photos are an inspiration to me! The way she sees the world is so incredible, that even when I try looking I can't see what she sees! She takes ordinary places and items, and turns them into incredible art. Places you wouldn't think could make a good photo, Orbitgal comes along and creates that great photograph.

    I can't wait to see more of her work! Keep it going Orbitgal! GREAT job!"

    "I think it's really cool to have been following your photostream for almost a year now. Over time your photos have been getting better and better... and now that you have the DSLR, your shots have taken to a whole new level.

    But your shots have always been good. I think it's because you're a people person. Your photography has less to do with camera settings and the technical side, and it has more to do with the people you are shooting... the human side.

    Photography means nothing if there is no subject. And photography is boring if the subject isn't interested with the camera or the person behind the camera. I get a great sense of interaction between you and whatever you're photographing.... and that's what I think makes your photography so good.

    Cheers!"

    "A love of life, of family, of friends, or children is evident in every photo viewed on Orbitgal's photostream. Imagination, talent, an eye for beauty. Never expect the common or boring because you won't see it here! You'll learn to love Orbitgal as her photos show you the warmth and sensitivty that is Orbitgal!"

    "A.K.A "Awesomegal," Orbitgal is truly a force to be reckoned with and should be approached with caution (and a smile). Reports say she is fearless and has been seen asking random passers-by to take their photo. She has also been know to shoot first and ask questions later. You have been warned."

    "Orbitgal rocks! With her close-up shots, she can make you see things in a way you've never seen them before. I like the fact that she isn't afraid to touch up some of her pics with Photoshop to add a little flava to them.

    P.S. Her food shots make me soooo hungry!"

    "If you love life, colour, and great portraits, Orbitgal is your gal.

    She's got a great eye for spotting beauty in the nondescript, for capturing life on the street and all around her, and for wicked post processing effects. Her joie de vivre shines brightly through her work.

    Not only is she a creative and a gifted photographer, she is a great communicator. Her comments and prompts keep me informed, and thinking, and most importantly smiling.

    Luckily I get time in the day to visit her prolific and ever increasing photo pool regularly. I am never disappointed, although I am sure my boss is :)

    If only the tectonic plates would hurry up and move Australia closer to America so we could go on that safari...

    Keep having fun OG - we're enjoying your creative journey with you."

    "What can I say to that lovely woman that I hasn´t told her already?

    She is an amazing person, and she has the hability to gives us a new sight to everyday things...stuff you would never care to see, she comes and shows you a picture and turn your head in another direction, starving to see simple, small things in a deeper way - that´s a true gift!

    I am very glad to have her has my flickr friend, and I know I still have many new amazing pictures from her to see: please, keep feeding us with those amazing simple things and never forget to keep your camera with you :)

    With a brazillian hug, full of music, waves and sand, I send this testimonial."

    "Orbitgal has such a fun photostream to look at. From her yummy looking meals at home, to street scenes, unusual, interesting strangers, and colorful macros. Many of her pictures tell a story, she would be a great photo journalist! And, she's not too shy to show her real, funny self in self-portraits once in awhile ; ) I'm glad to have found her and I look forward to seeing her continue to grow her photo skills."
