    "Mike, this testimonial is long overdue my friend, and I hope you like it from beginning to end. You are one HECK of a photographer and your photos are always so very beautiful to me.

    A FRIEND
    © Breena C. Park

    A friend is like a flower,
    a rose to be exact,
    Or maybe like a brand new gate
    that never comes unlatched.
    A friend is like an owl,
    both beautiful and wise.
    Or perhaps a friend is like a ghost,
    whose spirit never dies.
    A friend is like those blades of grass
    you can never mow,
    standing straight, tall, and proud
    in a perfect little row.
    A friend is like a heart that goes
    strong until the end.
    Where would we be in this world
    if we didn't have a friend."

    "Mr. Mikenpo...what can I say! You are amazing! Mike's photography is stellar! He has an eye for the most amazing and stunning sunrise and sunset photos ever! The colors are always crisp and vibrant! He has some clever ideas and it's always a pleasure to view his photostream every day! As a photographer, he goes above and beyond the call of duty to get an awesome shot! Mountain climbing (and climbing on top of buildings..lol) to catch the sunrise and sunsets, lying in the muck (err...whatever it's called) to get the horse photos, and even lying in a snow covered hammock (one of my faves) in a swim suit! He's a true artist and photographer in every sense of the word! Mike is a great flickr pal...always has something great to say about your photo even when you know it's not one of your best and you wondered why you even posted it! He's always loyal about commenting! Mike...so glad that our paths crossed! Keep posting those wonderful photos...flickr just wouldn't be the same without you! I feel blessed to have you as my friend! Never ever lose that wit and sense of humor! You always make me laugh!"
