My camera is with me wherever I go. I found out that you never know when you're going to see a zebra.
UPDATE:
I still have my camera with me most of the time, but my flickring has taken an extreme backseat to painting. I've had some success selling them at local arts and crafts shows and some local galleries.
I'm a member of In-Town Gallery, a 35-year old artists' co-op gallery in Chattanooga, TN.

"Amiko is a rare creature. He embodies life, warmth, a genuine spirit, playfulness, culture and a zest for life. His photos capture all of these qualities and more.
I make my way around Flickr every so often but I always have to make and take my time to visit his part of it all. It's always a treat and very inspiring.
I can't wait to see where he takes me next on his visual journey."21st April, 2008

"Amiko's photos are always interesting, often inspiring and sometimes inspirational. Whether he's tempting us to make wonderful food, taking fun, funny photos of his furry friends or rolling around in bed with us all as observers, Amiko's Flickr stream is always a great place to be."

"Amiko es una persona de suma versatilidad fotográfica, llevando la fotografía de las cosas ordinarias a planos que nunca antes me hubiera imaginado.
Que puedo decir de sus autorretratos, sobrepasan de lo brillante al ingenio innato.
Todos los que te conocemos sabemos que ya tienen un amiko-color tus fotos jajajaja.
En ocasiones me quedo sorprendido y admirado de su creatividad y me contagia de gran alegría esas perspectivas y fotos divertidísimas que sólo este gran personaje sabe crear.
Muchas gracias por compartir tus fotos........tú tiempo........y parte de tu vida.......amigo."17th October, 2007

"The man is just lovely. Amiko's inspirational photographs are excellent. The self portrait work is artistic, varied and full of humour, three excellent qualities in my mind. The captures from his many travels always introduce something of wonder - the heat and colour from the Maltese Luzzas make me drool, the drama of the Canada rail images make me shiver. He presents places I've never seen in a way that makes me want to get there myself. That makes them successful images. The 'Hooligans' and the watergarden are joyus photos, giving me much pleasure. I spend much time here, yet still there are images I've yet to view. He is always a delightful, encouraging flickrfriend, who I wish I knew personally. Those that do are the lucky ones. I think I plopped into this stream via a required 'comment-on-the photo-to-your-right' type group. And am I happy he was next in the Pool!
He has talent, humour and charm. He is often on my mind. I think I'm in love."24th June, 2007

"It all started on May 18, 2006. Paul posted a beautiful photo titled "Bead Girl". Later that month came iced tea and the rear end of a toad (you should really check this one out...). That got me hooked on his photos, and I'm happy to count him among my friends.
Paul is a funny, original, sensitive and always surprising photographer and friend. One day we'll have a beer together. Until then, I enjoy his cyber-company."21st January, 2007

"Amiko is both such a creative and gentle person. I look forward to his work perhaps more than anyone on flickr. Whismy, with a certain existential sensibility. It always brings a smile to my face and reminds me that one of the things I enjoy most in a person is a sense of playful curiosity."

"From the very beginning, when I first joined Flickr, Paul's work caught my eye. He is a very gifted photographer.
Blessed with a great sense of humor along with a unique perspective, his photo's command attention. He is a wonderful encourager always taking time to comment on other people's pictures.
When it comes to manipulating, Paul is the master! It's been a pleasure, AMIKO!"11th September, 2006

"Amiko is amazing! His photos are simply breathtaking; original, fresh and creative. He sees things fronm an angle no one else does, or even imagines. I always enjoy browsing his photostream - just wish there were more! His comments on my photos are constructive and encouraging too, And anytime I want more Amiko syle observations I just look at his blog. His observations are very perceptive and thought provoking. Thanks amigo Amiko!"

"Amiko's use of light, movement and texture in his work is brilliant. His portfolio is full of images which makes me wonder how the hell he got it and how he managed to spot it in the first place. Amazing :)"

"When I first discovered flickr, I was more an observer, than participant. But, there was one person whose photos always kept me coming back...Amiko's.
Who else could take the death of a camera and make it a visual celebration? flickr.com/photos...
Whether it was his enticing travel photos, his obvious love for animals, or his great eye for capturing a beautiful moment (or place) in time...he had me hooked.
Always patient when I asked questions about his techniques, and graciously answering my pesty emails, he gave me confidence to jump into flickr with both feet.
Now I am overwhelmed to be able to call him my mentor, my tutor, and best of all my friend.
Thank you Amiko!
Thank you flickr!"7th September, 2005

"Amiko is a very good photgrapher, as you can see looking at his pictures, but, the most important, he is a sensible man, I mean, he is an artist."
