Visit www.jrmanuel.com or www.cafepress.com/jrmannn for prints. If you see a photo on my stream you like let me know and I can get it on smugmug.com or cafepress.com. Thanks! =)
For those living on Guam, just email coz the shipping costs are convenient for the US, but not Guam.

Although I love photography and enhance my images in photoshop, I prefer to be called an "artographer" rather than a photographer, just my opinion. =) Since I've been on flickr, my style has been nature, mostly clouds and macros. And thank the Lord for my place of birth, because Guam USA has some of the most spectacular skies on the planet!

Local boy from Guam... joined the navy in 1984, was stationed in San Diego my whole career, stayed for 13 years and then became a civilian in 1997. I was attached to Fighter Squaron TWO in Miramar (deployed with USS RANGER CV 61); then shore duty at COMNAVSURFPAC in Coronado for 8 years; and lastly USS BOXER LHD 4.

cameras: Konica-Minolta Maxxum 7D, Canon 50D, 7D, 5D mk2, Sony A350. Canon for people and Minolta & Sony for nature.

Sinong Tatay Mo? ***A NEW DAY*** says:

"What can I say about the guy who embodies and masterfully captures the island spirit? The journey through his stream is filled with superlatives: the most vibrant sunrises and sunsets, beautifully detailed macros, perfect portraiture. I can't heap enough praise on his shots!

Thanks for bringin' da island back to da boy, JR!!"

Roel Santiago GUAM says:

"Once in awhile you come across individuals with just the knack of doing things. JR is no exception to being that. He has the ability to find ordinary every day to day and turn things into wonderful worlds of wonder. I am glad to meet people like JR who see the beauty in photography in vivid colors, extreme close-ups, and breath-taking sunrise. I don’t know anyone that will wake up 4:30 am just to catch the sunset. Always, willing to go for the extra mile for the shot. Great shooting JR."

"Guess I never wrote a testimonial for my friend, JR. Here goes...

I met JR Manuel in March 2007 while in Guam for a funeral and had the opportunity to shoot with him for a couple of hours a few days before returning to Las Vegas.

JR is the epitome of a well-rounded photographer. He excels at all aspects of photography, landscape, macro, action/sports...I would be surprised if there's anything he can't shoot with perfection!

He is extremely dedicated to capturing the "perfect shot." He will wait hours until he has what he needs. Have a browse through his photostream, and you'll see that you'd probably want JRmannn doing your next event or find yourself hiring him to work on a project that requires a specific skillset.

Hats off to you my friend...you've earned your dues.

Brandon T. Perez"

"He has a great eyes for beach and sunset shot! All of his pictures make me yearn for the tropical climate. They are breathtaking and has the "don't you wish you were here" feel to it. Truly one of the best flickr fellow here."

"JR is not only an amazing photographer, but an amazing person as well. He is a single dad that still manages to get out there and document Guam and his surroundings in a way that brings peace and tranquility with every image to my monitor. I always look forward to JR's images, comments, and e-mails. He is a loyal contributor to Flickr in a uniquely positive way. Without JR and his images, Flickr and it's community would not be the same. Look through his photostream--the journey will surely be worth it. You may even find images that you wish to purchase within his stream--I know I have."

"jrmannn! - what a pleasure to meet you via flickr! its funny how our lives criss-cross, and I've never met you in person but you know many of my friends on guam! You're a very talented photographer, and I thank you for sharing all those lovely (sometimes surreal) images of a place I once called home. Your images help keep me in touch with the island life that once was! keep up the great work :)"
