  "No-one who gets a hit from pure, liquid, singing colour or carefully observed geometry can have failed to discover Barbara's photography - or be completely blown away by it, as I have certainly been. Barely a thing goes up here that isn't a visual standout. All, just about, have eye-popping colour - team that up with beautiful, deceptively simple, bold graphic compositions, and it's all pure pleasure.
  Barbara's stream is a hymn to the love of colour - drink in, get intoxicated, sigh and smile. Thanks for the pure joy of your images.

  "Just a quick note - as we approach the year's end - to say thank you to b2 for letting me in to her friendship these last few months. It's been a dream to spend quality time in her company, laughing and smiling until our faces creased up.
  
  I love your work, Barbara, and I love that now I can call you a friend.
  
  (PS Schneiderweisse please)"

  "what do I love of barbara?
  her incredible eye for colours and compositions, her beautiful abstract "inventions", her creativity, her exquisite research of perfection, her attention to details ... and more: her intellectual honesty, her deepness, her intelligence.
  und noch mehr! ... her. ;-D
  I enjoy her works, they are really music to my eyes, and they are of great inspiration to me.
  so, thank you for being such a good friend, more than such a great artist , barbara!"

  "June the 27th, 2008; I swear i would frame this thing...if only i could. Barbera's eye for abstract finds is the most insatiable i know. She has the brains and a lot of wit for showing us Toronto's "underground" as nobody has seen it before. I admire people with an own identity...and i thank the lordy Barbera's identity/wit is not stuffed in a frame...so Lady, go on! you rock!"

  "Nobody does it quite like Barbera!
  She inspires us too see things in detail, different, feel the textures with our eyes and she plays with colors in a unique way...
  Congratulations Barbera for having your very own style and way of expression.
  And thank you for sharing and letting us be inspired by you..."

  "Barbara is without question one of the finest abstract photographers on flickr. She has an incredible eye for finding art just about anywhere. Rich colours, textures, and superb composition are typical of Barbara's work. It's a pleasure to view her images, and it is an honour to call her a friend. Bravo, Barbara!"

  "Barbera’s work deserves special attention. There is skill here which elevates this stream out of the ordinary. Barbera sees things that many of us don’t see and photographs them with pleasing compositional proficiency time after time. Her abstracts are a cut above, thrillingly creative, different and eye-catching. And if you don’t care for abstracts, take a look at Barbera’s high quality nature shots instead and you won’t be disappointed…"

  "First let me say I am not one that is good with words. When I first saw Barbera's photos they were of the details of flowers... beautiful! And she started a new view (at least to me) of abstract or textures... I was at first confused but the more she posted them the more I liked them. She has shown me that photos aren't just about children, flowers and animals but about art. Thank you Barbera!!"

  "Barbera's flower and plant photography amazes me, especially the more recent in her pool. I'm not usually attracted to flower photography--there is so much of it out there. But Barbera's is in a league of its own. Every flower, or often an isolated part of a flower, in her pool is a unique life-form. Sometimes I think these life-forms might be about to take over the earth and become our slavemasters! Gorgeous and scary slavemasters!
  
  Or maybe I've just been reading too much science fiction . . .
  
  Thanks for the pics, Barbera!"
