I’ve met some wonderful people on Flickr and been inspired by the vast diversity of art. I’ve tried to keep my contact list manageable. So even when I’m not posting very much, I check my contact’s photos: it’s a joy to see the images my friends make.

The thing I like best about Flickr is the culture of civility and wonder. Most people on Flickr are nice to one another and appreciate the beauty of life. If only people in the real world would do this more often.

Please feel free to offer advice or criticism on my images, captions, opinions or anything else. And by the way, the opinions expressed (or perceived) do not necessarily reflect those of anyone but me.

    "I found Bob at the beginning of the year after searching on flickr for random words to see what they generated. The word that led me to Bob was 'Snowglobe' and delivered this image:

    www.flickr.com/ph...

    After pausing to digest the humour in his self portrait, I browsed his stream, and it has now become part of the daily routine for me. Never dull, and always a real-life window into life in Sacramento interspersed now and again with the more surreal 'Bobs Dreams' series.

    Life is a key theme in Bobs stream, the images are as he found them, a snapshot of his day, usually backed up with a statement or explaination in the description to give some sort of background to the image.

    On a personal note, I find Bob to be incredibly humble about his own work and yet incredibly complimentary about everyone else, I trust his judgement and his wisdom. His advise is always spot on.
    Its finding people like Bob that make places like Flickr just that little bit more exciting :)"

    "Robert Couse-Baker has the sensibilities of Mr. America while maintaining the dry wit of Monty Python's Flying Circus. His photographs capture a world that few of us see although it is right before our eyes every day, and the "Bob's Dream" and other photomanipulations are true Art (with a capital "A")."

    "I'm actually surprised that there aren't thousands, okay, dozens, of testimonials about Bob. He is obviously an incredibly talented photographer, with a really funny sense of humor. He adores his family and is very, very good at his job. And that doesn't even cover it. He is a primo human being."
