Hello you!
Please have a sit:

FIRST OF ALL:

I like to play here on flickr. It is such an amazing sandbox of great ideas full of inspirational surprises..
I welcome you to play with me, but I like to play clean so please don't put any graphic awards and such in your comments - I would choose silence and attention instead of flashy context and "copy and paste" signs of life.
Thank You!

Proud Administrator of:
As Above So Below,

and Alive in the Square

Many, many thanks to those of you, who wrote
such wonderful testimonials :)

""Ignite the imagination and light the slow fuse of the possible" - my favourite quote from Emily Dickinson. I think she had Wjos in mind when she wrote it."

"I've admired Wjosna's work for sometime but only recently have come to know her a little. her style is clearly recognizable .. striking drama illuminated by the most heavenly light. for me, the subject of her images IS the light, and sometimes I find myself studying the lit subject only secondarily.
poet Minnie Aumonier said 'there is always music amongst the trees in the garden, but our hearts must be very quiet to hear it.' to me that describes well her approach to photography. wjosna has the rare ability to quiet all around her until she sees the music in her head that she intends to record on 'film.' I am honored to have her as a friend."

"Ansel Adams once said that there are always two people in every picture: the photographer and the viewer. In Wjosna's work, the photographer's part is so brilliant and magical that the viewer is often awe struck!

Wjosna's photography is the act of alchemy of everyday, common images into divine creations that are certainly worth more than gold.

I enjoy her work, immensely!

"Wjosna
(such a beautiful name)

It was a pleasant surprise to meet her on Flickr. I had seen one or the other postings every now and then, but she only became my contact a short time ago and I regret the wasted time, because it is a delight to be on wjosna´s stream.
She is a very talented photographer and a wonderful, incredibly creative artist. Her work keeps amazing me, just taking me to unimaginable places of beauty. Dreamscapes!!!

Thank you, wjosna, for your work, your kindness and your always friendly and dear presence on my stream.
It makes a difference, for sure!!!

Warmest brazilian hug,
Petra

"wjosna is a great!
I've just commented on one of her pic and I so wish to say - officially!!! *lol* - how much I love her work: she is a creative torrent, she has style, elegance, taste for colours and composition, and - above all! - she creates fascinating, intense, amazing images that are a music to my eyes and food for my soul!
and - btw - she manages some of the best flickr group :-)
I'm honoured to be her contact and to have her friendship.
wjos: go on rocking, baby!!!!!"
