"Flickr is a challange and a wanderland sight. One can think at the beginning that this is a game but it is not, it is the way you explore and find different friends who surely you will not meet them physically, this kind of friendship anyhow is much more better. Ruslou is a friend and photographer who supports and gives spirit to people, he is always next to you, for him is not important what kind of nationality or religion you belong. In his magnificent shots one can read a lot of things, his shots mostly are from animals and birds, his selection is so smart that you think you are far away from artificials. Sometimes you think he is far away from comments, suddenly he interrupts your suspicion. Rus just keep going like this, you are among the best friends I met in this sight."

"Rus and I both joined Flickr in October on '06. I can't remember how we found each other, but our friendship grew over the years. Rus is such a talent, especially his avian pictures. He captures these African beauties in such natural habitat, you feel as if you are actually visiting his country and surroundings. He really should publish a book of birds...they are that good."

"Rus is the nicest person on Flickr.
Each and every photo you add to your photostream is a magnificent example and inspiration for so many of your fans. I am definitely one of them. You do have an excellent eye for all the beauty that nature offers, but you also have talent to capture these beauties in a wonderful composition and to share all these interesting stories."21st February, 2009

"This is long overdue!!!
Have you ever come across a person, but have not actually met them in person, and then feel like you have known them for years?
This is wat it feels like with Rus.
Apart from being a fantastic photographer, he is one of the kindest persons I know. He is loyal and considerate and a person can see that he treassures his friends and thinks twice befor ecommenting.
I feel very honered to be on his contact list!!
Thanks for the inspiration,my friend, Rus."13th July, 2008
