*Yueh-Hua 2012 says:

"真得很開心認識這位施大哥，是我畢生的榮幸。

起初讓我最有印象的就是他台北101系列的作品，一直是我學習的對象！
尤其，我周遭的朋友都習慣地稱他為101達人 ^ ^b

不僅是台北101作品，其他的作品也令人十分驚艷！
非常推薦大家來欣賞施大哥的大作。凡是他走過的地方，總是能夠拍得盡善盡美，美不勝收。

構圖不僅扎實沉穩，作品內容更是傳達出濃厚的人文氣息。
待人十分親切的施大哥，深信他是攝影界的台灣之光！"

"If you try to find out some Taipei 101 photos in Flickr, you should already know about Daniel - one of the most famous photographers that has many many good photos of Taipei 101. And if you know that how many raining days in Taipei a year, you should understand how difficult for Daniel to take these photos with beautiful sky."

"Hey Daniel, old pal...

We have been enjoying your photos tremendously. For the greater part of the twenty years I've known you, I had no idea that you had such artistic talents in you!

Great images, fantastic compo, and vivid colors.

Without you I would not have spent the time putting my shots on Flickr. You are a true inspiration. Give us more!

Cheers,
Wolfie"

Lee Wei-I says:

"我一直對台北101沒什麼好感，覺得是個銅臭味很濃的建築，不過Daniel(dans.photo)的照片在某種程度上改變了我的觀點，他把101大樓的美感完全地表現出來，提供了一個嶄新的視野。"
