"The virtue of the camera is not the power it has to transform the photographer into an artist, but the impulse it gives him to keep on looking."
~Brooks Anderson
I take pictures almost every day. People, things, clouds, flowers, buildings...anything that inspires me. Photography keeps me sane on most days!

"Maria is a woman with a very tender and loving heart. I'm glad I may call her my friend eventhough we have never met IRL. Maria is a talented photographer who makes the most beautiful photos of flowers.
Thank you Maria, for having you in my life eventhough it is through e-mail.

"Maria isn’t just like a sister, she really is one. Maria is the voice in my head that inspires me to share who I am with others beyond the scope of our secure bond. I credit Maria for many things, but especially for selflessly sharing her natural zest for life and for inspiring my creativity that I would not have otherwise considered. For example, she insists that I can scrapbook, but I really cannot in light of the genius that she is. And then there’s photography, while I’ll admit to sharing the same “trigger finger” that she has, she’s genuinely inspired my own passion behind a lens. Maria is a natural at all that she does. Really. I know this because I’ve personally witnessed it for many years. She’s this amazing lady sent to us to learn from. Maria is a remarkable teacher, friend, and sister. I think her qualities shine through in all that she does, but especially those things that she cares about, like photography. In her case, a picture really does speak a thousand words :)"

"Maria's photo stream is beautiful! She was one of my very first contacts here on Flickr. And she has been such a great inspiration to me. Her work, especially of flowers and other peices of nature with quotes allways give me smiles! Love her creative angles and compostion. Her photography is truly inspiring and just simply brilliant!
thanks for being a good Flickr Friend Maria! :)"17th October, 2007
