Muzzlehatch's photostream
|
I am trying to be the man my dogs think I am.
I'm a Getty Images shooter and a Getty curator; I cruise around Flickr looking for shots that Getty would like to represent.
I can't always respond to Flickr mails the same day I receive them, but I try. And I do eventually respond to every mail that requires a response.

alisonhulot says:
"You'll gasp at his landscapes.
You'll weep at his melancholy deserts.
You'll guffaw at his fizzy wit and bouncy intelligence.
To say that Muzzlehatch knows his stuff is absurd litotes. Wistful scenes, superbly shot, dry wit and the most charismatic beard on Flickr.

Marcin Tustin says:
"Almost every photo Muzzlehatch posts is an absolute gem, carrying a sense of emotion that is undeniable (and that's just the landscapes and still lifes). Looking at his photos, I suspect that this is possible because of the great love he has for Southern California, and his other subjects."

"muzzy, a gorgeous human being able to capture the spirit of his muse..
I e-met muzz on yafro in '04 and his magnetic personality is contagious and if you have had the pleasure to encounter his charm you know what I'm talking about. I feel blessed by his humor and his spirit in action through his photography.
thanks muzz for being you!

"I must say, I thought I was on top of my game as a photographer, but whenever I need to realize how far I have to come, I shall come back to visit this gentleman's stream. Where else can you find hundreds of photos where my only comment is "I wish I was this good!"??"

Further to Fly says:
"Muzz brings sanity to every conversation while remaining a little off-center himself. Very knowledgable about all things photographic, he is genuinely helpful and never tosses off even the most inane questions. He professes to have a real job but I suspect secretly he is unemployed because where else could he find all that time to contribute so much?
Oh and did I mention, he is a helluva photographer!"20th August, 2009

Jill :] is a Crimson Tide fan! says:
"Eric's love affair with the golden hour is fully evident in his photos. I usually look in awe and wonder at his work...and then dissect it to see how I can replicate anything near as wonderful myself. :)
Eric has taught me so much through his involvement with the Olympus E-System Community (http://www.flickr.com/groups/olympusesystem/). I love his wit and charm as well as his view of the world. Many times he brings me wonderful memories of growing up in Southern California.
Every Flickr member should take a stroll through Eric's photostream...it's like ice cream...for your eyes! YUM!"20th August, 2009

akabilk says:
"Other than having a photostream bursting to the seems with goodness Eric also shares on a personal level, giving an emotional aspect to a his creation of Art.
Art is the right word I think for what is happening here, don't be fooled by his self deprecation, a great eye for anything from a picturesque desert scene to an unexpected moment capture to a tee.
killer use of edge burn in lightroom as well :D"15th August, 2009

"I haven't been as active on Flickr as I once was, but I did some routing through my contacts' photos and forgotten how much I enjoyed Eric's photos! They share his life, his loves, and the way he notices simplicity in the world around us. It made me smile to catch up on what I've missed over the last few months :)"

"Muzzlehatch is my Obi Wan. He is an artist of great merit and a techincal guru of great generosity. His willingness to share in methodology and honest critique is of massive benefit to my own growth as a photographer and I know I'm not alone in that. His ability to make colours shine by muting them is wonderful and his style is clear and instantly recognisable - yet no two pictures repeat the same impression.
He's the kind of contributor to flickr that makes me return every night.
May his aim stay true, his battery never deplete and his eye stay tuned to what most people can never see."21st May, 2008

everyday*beautiful { Lacy } says:
"so. you browse a stream one night, and you realize, "this is art." Someone should always bear witness to beautiful art. Someone should always raise their glass to real vision...
To something well seen. To light elusively captured. To images deeper than just grass, flowers, a face, a moment.
I'm bearing witness. *smiles."15th May, 2008

"Muzz is a true student of photography. I am always impressed by his ability to analyze and understand the technical side of photography. His experience and know how is only surpassed by his creativity and artisic eye which shows in his photos. And hey, he's just an all around cool dude! Keep shooting!"

"I learned more in the last year from this guy then anyone else I keep a correspondence with.
Eric is the real deal, not a gear head like me. He takes what he has, and not only makes the best use of it, blows most others away. Give him a CPL, look out!"14th June, 2007

"The ultimate in professionalism and a consumate artist. He lies on the fine line separating reality and abstract. Okay okay, so I laid it on kinda thick. The Muzz is cool, down to earth and a righteous bro. Peace."
