  The Friends we meet Online
  
  The true friends who we meet online
  Are a very special kind
  They pierce your shields and see within
  The corners of your mind.
  
  They're always there when you're in need
  With their power to discern.
  They feel your pain.....
  They offer hope and genuine concern.
  
  We bare our souls, expose our hearts
  And show our inner fears
  And then before you know it
  The keyboard's stained with tears.
  
  And if we could see them through that screen
  Then no one could deny
  That to be a TRUE online friend
  They too must cry.

  "If you have found yourself here at Mary’s special place at flickr…then you are really going to enjoy looking at her wonderful and beautiful pictures, that no doubt will reach in and touch your soul. Mary is an incredibly talented photographer and no matter what picture you look at, you will feel something that’s for sure. You will be left breathless and inspired by a beautiful view, or feel your heart smile when looking at her family pictures, and empowered or moved emotionally when she uses her pictures to stand up for a cause she believes in. An amazing photographer with a beautiful soul, that’s Mary!...And I‘m so glad I found her and her pictures here at flickr. Thanks for being here Mary!"

  "Mary is one of my longest running friends here on Flickr. She is a dream. A doll. And I may be the only person left on Flickr that hasn't written her a testimonial yet. The long list below me is a testament to her skill as a photographer and her warmth as a person. She is a fantastic photographer with zest and spirit for life that oozes out of her work. And that is second only to her love for her family and grand kids. I am honored to have Mary as a friend. Cheers to you my dear."

  "It is very hard to know were to start with a testimonial to Mary. I will just say that I have been on flickr now for almost two years, and Mary has been one of my contacts since early on in my flickr experience. Sorry to say, this testimonial is far overdue. That is my fault and I feel very sorry that I have not written her one long before now. If anyone deserves a testimonial it would be Mary.
  
  I have known for a while now that she was a real talent behind her camera, and as time has gone by her photography has only improved. Her talent just seems endless. Each and every one of her images she posts is a gem and a real joy to view.
  
  Mary is a fabulous landscape and seascape photographer, just to name a few. It really doesn't matter what subject she is photographing, she just makes a work of art out of any of it.
  
  It has been a real privilege to have her as one of my contacts. She is very quick to give my images comments and praise which is very nice to see. Some just post and run.. but not Mary.. She is genuine and is very loyal to her contacts. That is a trait I really admire about Mary.
  
  I always look forward to her next work of art, and I know it will always be worthy of viewing and commenting on because she is a true artist and a wonderful person. She is beautiful both inside and out.
  
  Thank you Mary for being the person that you are.. Hugs.. Nick"

  "Mary.
  It is with great pleasure that I write this for you. Mary you have been a dear friend and wonderful contact. I have enjoyed every picture you have posted. It is easy to see the kind and caring person that you are through your pictures. So many times the words you leave with every pictures have hit so close to home on days when they were much needed. Many people show many different things through their photographs. You show love and compassion. I can't help but think the world would be a much better place if there were more people in it like you.

  "Msummerchick (Mary) has been a flickr friend of my for some time. I am delighted to have met such a talented photographer with a sensitive eye for beautiful photography. I enjoy visiting her photostream, because I always know that she will have delightfully gorgeous photos with thoughtful descriptions. It is also wonderful to read her comments, each one contains a personal note that extends far beyond the average, run-of-the-mill flickr comments.
  
  I look forward to many more beautiful photos from her."

  "Dear Mary this is long overdue but not because I haven't though about you and your wonderful work and friendship everyday since I found you on flickr.
  Your work speaks for itself, so inspiring and original. You have a wonderful knack of posting beautiful photo's with heartfelt quotes and comments. That is a gift. Your are a serious photographer working your craft everyday.
  It is always a treat to end my day or begin my day for that matter visiting your stream just to see what color, shape and form you have posted that day. Wise words usually follow.
  I am drawn to you also for your beautiful sense of people. You are sensitive and warm and give freely of comments, always being positive.
  Mostly though, I love your honestly and humor. They go hand in hand.
  Thank you for sharing your gift of photography but mostly thanks for your friendship. It is easy, no pressure, but always fun. When we meet it's like it was yesterday.
  Happy shooting Mary. Make each day count my friend. xoxo"

  "Mary, is one of my very best friends, not just on flickr, but in life as well . Though we have never personally met, I know that we would be great friends. She is a wonderful and caring friend , who always seems to be there when needed and always comes up with the right words, and if you already know her, you know I'm right!! As for her work as a photographer, she is amazing! There is a good reason that she has a big following and has so many comments on each photo,, She's AWESOME!! She thinks outside the box, yet can be very traditional as well and make both styles her own. Her work is clean, crisp, colorful, sexy, and inspiring as well. I can't tell you how many times I have looked at her work and just said,,,WOW!!! I plan on meeting her somday and hope to go shooting with her, but until that day, I count myself lucky to be one of her MANY contacts and luckier STILL to be counted as a friend!! MARY SWEETIE,, YOU ROCK!!!"

  "I stumbled on Mary's work through a mutual contact here on Flickr. I got dosed with her infectious optimistm through her photographs and I've been addicted since ~ Mary is truly a person of stellar character and integrity. Her work speaks volumes about her versatility and professionalism as a photographer, in addition to her love and passion for life and all it's inexplicable intricacies. She has become a mentor and more importantly, a friend who I have grown very fond of. I had the pleasure of meeting Mary and Amy in her hometown not long ago. Being somewhat a private and quiet person, I was a little nervous about meeting two strangers, even though I talked with them through Flickr. I am pleased to report, it's been a long time since I've met someone so likable and easy-going as the two of them. They should have been born sisters, I think. We had a wonderful and most memorable day. Thank you, Mary ~ you are such a great person!"

Her nature photography inspires me to try to improve mine. I recommend her stream to everyone. Let it pull you in. Mary, thanks for your kind comments on my stream and I hope you continue to keep shooting and sharing and inspiring.

  "I’ve been meaning to do this for such a long time so here it goes…this is my first testimonial ever. Mary was one of my first Flickr contacts. I couldn’t believe someone with her talent would take the time to look at my photostream but she did again and again. Her work is just so unbelievably beautiful. Extraordinary shots with wonderful tidbits of insight, well-picked words of wisdom and songs that make her shots come alive. I don’t know if it’s because of our age or our New England upbringing but I feel like we have so much in common, I can’t believe I feel so close to someone I’ve never met, she has put thoughts and feeling that I have into her words and pictures. Keep up your amazing work Mary, there are so many of us that you just inspire and brighten our days.
  Hugs, Lola"

  "I have to start out saying that Mary is truely a pioneer for women every where in many ways......
  For one....She has no qualms to tell you that She is over fifty and loving it. I just love that because it gives me the fifties to look forward to.
  For another....She has brought a sense of sensuality to flickr that cellebrates WOMEN that is done with such style and grace that women are sure to respect and admire.....I know that I sure do.
  For another She is a wonderfully caring person that has lived some life and learned some lessons and does not mind sharing her perspective and reaching thousands with he heart..
  People her work speaks for itself....it is inspiring and something to aim for ...truely brilliant in so many aspects.
  Mary I wish to say personally that with you leading the way for myself and so many others that we as women everywhere we shall embrace our feminity and power as women and not be afraid to show our hearts as well. Thank you for being you....thank you for being my friend. With great admiration and BIG HUGE HUGS!!!!

  "What a fantastic person Mary is! All the photos she takes are magical, with a good dose of personality, served up msummerchick style. Kind of like adding sugar to a dull desert, she adds a little Mary, and perks up whatever she is focusing on.
  Girl, I have been very lucky to find you and your photos through flickr, via JustDuckie. I remember one of the photos he posted that referenced you , so I clicked over and have fallen for your style and humor and sheer delightfulness. Keep your own goals in mind, and make certain no one ever tells you how you should act, or feel, or *shoot* =)
  You are special!

  "Mary is purely a joy to know! Her photography is absolutely amazing and beautiful, and she is undoubtedly one of the sweetest, nicest, and most genuine people I've ever had the pleasure of meeting on Flickr! :) My wife (Snaphappy77) and I think of Mary as extended family, and are so very proud and glad to call her our dear friend. Mary's photos not only capture but really express the natural beauty of so many things, and are a testament to the incredible eye for photography she has.
  The words fun, sweet, loyal, kind, sincere, and incredibly talented seem way too inadequate to describe Mary, but perhaps that will give us a start. A person is very lucky when they meet someone like Mary, and I am very honored to know her! :)"

  Happy snapping my friend! : )

The way her photos are filled with her personal touches and loving passion for photography take my breath away. She is dedicated, respected and an inspiration to us all! Her encouraging words have taken me to places in photography I have never been before, and beyond! Mary is truly a genuine, one of a kind photographer and friend. It is a blessing to have such a sweet, caring person like her close by. Mary, thank you for all that you have given, told, and shared with me. I am truly, honored!"

  "I have had the distinct privilege to get to know Mary through her masterful photography and through her kind visits to my photostream. One visit to her photostream will show you how talented this gifted lady is behind the lens, but it won't show you all there is to know about her as a person. That true knowledge will come only when this wonderful woman stops by and leaves one of her encouraging and uplifting comments on one of your photos.
  
  When that happens you'll feel like the sun has broken through the clouds and is lighting up your face with golden rays. I have experienced this and am grateful for her presence here at Flickr - it truly is a much better place because of her.
  
  I'm extremely proud to be able to call Mary my friend....."

  "I stumbled into Mary's photostream by accident and since then she became an instant friend who has a great personality that radiates through her photos and comments. She has an excellent eye for beauty and knows how to capture it. Her photography is truly exceptional with such varied subject matter and excellently captured. Not only is she a fantastic photographer, she is also one of the warmest and friendliest souls I have met on Flickr. She is a dear "sister" who is kind, compassionate, generous and beautiful. I'm so glad to have met you here and I am proud to have you as my friend. Love you, Sis!"

  "Wow........I am trying to find some words that can describe this beautiful woman and her fotos….. Dazzling, gorgeous, tastefully posed, beautiful, good eye for a foto, extremely sexy and erotic…. I don’t think any of those can come remotely close to describing this lady…….. She is all of that and much, much more….
