As you will see from my stream, I really like photographing animals. I can really lose myself watching them. You will also see that I don't take life very seriously. I like the absurd and enjoy seeing the funny side of things.

What I love about Flickr is that I hear from people all over the world and I get to see places and people that I may not have been able to without the aid of this wonderful tool.

Please don't be offended if I do not reciprocate if you make me a contact. I tend to keep my number of contacts down to a managable amount, where I can leave comments.

    "I've known Astrida for over 2 years now, she has an enormous sense of humour, and she carries this into her photography.
    Astrida is famous for her horse photographs & lives nr the New Forest, so is in the perfect place for this subject.
    She always seems to catch her animals doing daft things, you can be really miserable, but look at her stream and your laughing within seconds
    She is very talented and I always look forward to her posts.
    People say their is always scope for improvement, but I reckon Astrida is pretty much at the top of the ladder.
    Thanks for being my flickr friend Astrida,
    Sue x x"

    "I love Bigbird3's sense of humour and her positive outlook on life, but most of all I love her photography.
    Browsing through her photos is an adventure into another world where animals talk and magical scenes are created, all mixed in with reality.
    Astrida, I think you are great!
    :-)"

    "Astrida and I share the love of animals which is expressed in her photos. She don't shows animals only but her souls or tell us a story about. Sometimes sentimental, sometimes humorous but always touching.
    I am glad to know her."

    "Astrida is one of the best photographers I know. Her love of life and animals show in her photography. She has a wonderful sense of humor that I look forward to with each photo she post, finding the light side of life and her environment makes it a pleasure for me to look forward to seeing and visiting her photo-stream. Astrida is a kind person and always has something cute and nice to say on others photos. I am glad she is my friend even through there are many miles between us we can still communicate through our love for animals and people. Thank you Astrida for being a dear friend and who has made Flickr a better place. Thank you for being my friend."

    "Astrida has an amazing knack for finding marvelous natural lighting and the greatest animal expressions. Her photos are full of surprise finds, with everything from snowflakes falling on a child’s smile to a horse eating holly. Her photos hold an interesting element of nature’s playfulness and are a pleasure view."

    "A stroll through Astrida's gallery reveals a soul abounding with love for nature and for animals in particular. Though I'm told she is relatively new to photography she creates images full of such beauty and serenity I find myself writing 'lovely' in almost every comment I make."

    "Astrida has not been using a camera for that long, and I have to say that she perfectly shows how anyone can take up photography.
    What I find most wonderful about her stream is how, as her stream has progressed, she is looking at the ordinary and mundane with a ' photographers eye' and making it look interesting. Moreover she is not taking it too seriously, she is just having fun and enjoying using that magic little box."
