The End."

Thomas Hawk says:

"Aqui has the distinction of being in my opinion the best photographer on Flickr at present. What's more he also has, again in my opinion, the finest photograph at present on Flickr.

2 Men and a Box flickr.com/photos... is artistic brilliance. Even as his best work it at the same time is very much typical of his unique style. Aqui has the ability to bring out detail in even the smallest of circumspect. The delicacy of his deliberateness, the subtlety of the beauty he finds around him, and the forcefulness of his most vivid, powerful and confrontational images are proof that Aqui has the innate eye of a contemporary master.

We all are fortunate to have the inspiration of his work and I'm also personally fortunate to also be able to call him a friend."

Plurp says:

"She stared at the screen, through the jitter and haze, unbelieving. From the place where the camera stood, now tilting noticably to the right, from there to the horizon on all sides, she could see nothing but an irregular mosaic of grey, of mottled grey things that resembled small vases, or tufts of straw. Emily rubbed her eyes, blinked, looked again, and reached, her hand shaking, for the phone."

"architecture.

no one sees it like aqui-ali.

i mean no one.

sharp lines to blow your mind.

he also has what may be the single most impressive image on all of flickr. (go see his most faved image of a crowd in munich from overhead.)"

"As great a picture can be made as one's mental capacity--no greater.Art cannot be taught it must be self-inspiration though the imagi .."
