    "There are people on flickr that you come across who upload pictures like its facebook, unedited and not cared for. then you come across people like Rekha, who in so many ways people are awe inspired by. There are times when i have clicked to Rekha's photo stream going, "how in the world did she do that?!" and i just sit there jaw dropped because i am so amazed at her talent. Her stream is one of those that you just go through it and you have to go through it again. Her photos are so fantastically processed and edited. Her photos have made me and probably so many other people just sit there and think. Rekha, your a very inspiring photographer and i hope to one day be as good as you are. thank you for giving us flickrers your talent. :)"

    "What can i say about miss Garton that i haven't said before? Your editing skills amaze me still. I'm more than willing to admit that I'm jealous of your skills and I'm more than happy to consider you a friend. I wouldn't have it any other way though. It makes me want to better myself as a photographer when i see your work. At the end of the day; you are a rare photographer with the an unrivaled understanding of lighting and set up. Your photos are unfaltering and your modesty is noble."

    "Rehka is one of those people who can spin your own mood or whatever tyranny you are under and be taken, even swept, away by a her expressions/thoughts/art work. After being swept away, the observer will read her text below it and is constantly shocked by how she RE-humanizes herself by adding something like how fun the shoot was, or how hard that was, or a simple thought of the moment . You are forced to feel connected to her thoughts. I have seen her develop a style and I luv watching her challenge herself. Rehka is one to watch."

    "Rekha Garton is a young photographer for whom I have great respect. For me as a pro creative, she symbolises the new wave, or generation, of pop photographers – original, digital, agile and personal. Guy Bourdin defined the frames of fashion photography in the mid-late 1900s, now people like Rekha does the same thing with contemporary "online & intimate" photography."

    "Rekha, as a fellow Norwich dweller, puts me to shame for my excuse that "Norwich is a terrible place to take photos". She manages to take more than amazing photos and I admire her a lot. She shows pure elegance, beauty and even sometimes tragic themes in her photography and it often thought provoking and touching. Incredible."

    "On Flickr you have all sorts of photographers, from the "drunk at parties" to aspiring pros who need an additional outlet to display their work.

    Simply put, many of her images are stunning. Her stream is a true reflection of her improvements in skill and in confidence with her imagery. At this pace she's going to be famous one day (apart from the fame that flickr has already brought her."

    "For most photographers their work is usually looked at but is seldom looked into. Rekha breaks this rule of thumb. Her photography forces you to take time and examine her work. Take each frame in and feel it. Her photos are cause to make you feel, think, and dream. Rekha has a way of taking reality and imposing her own thought and spirit upon the subject. I highly recommend taking a moment to view Rekha’s photo stream and make Rekha one of your contacts. You will not be disappointed."

    "Rekha is my friend. She is cool. And the other two peoples testimonial things are way bigger than mine even though I know Rekha as a person and friend not just some photographer/model with nice feet.lol. So anyways I thought I add to mine. Ohh Yeah she is much cooler than you! You better add her cos she is wicked good at photography. Im a bit envious. She has also got mad skills at photoshop. Im still learning.
    Ohh yeah and I was only joking when I said with nice feet well not that she doesnt I was imitating some strange people saying her toes are suckable. lolzors.
    Rekha you are ace!"

    "i can say Rekha is a beauty with a creative head .. i like her point of view in her captures. she got an eye to get those WOW kinda pics .. it would b cliche to say u has got sparkingly blue eyes. she has definitely mastered the art of capturing herself. i see a big improvement in her technique and the effects in her pics compared to the earlier ones .. specially those wings pics and the multiple personality pics. they r just amazing. i hail her for those brillant ideas. she is one of the flickrites i look upto, get inspired n frequently check for new ideas n techniques."

    "Just when you think you have seen it all.

    You have an amazing photo stream...you are for sure blessed with many wonderful gifts from talent to youth to such stunning good looks. From your captions and preferred subjects you are also with an interesting and caring soul. I wish you well and imagine you have only begun. What a beautiful and wonderful start of sorts. I imagine you have been dreaming all your life...such a creative soul could only make such beautiful images as you are producing. Congratulations in having so many blessings. I am enjoying all of your art creative genius.

    I love your color manipulations...and yes...you are fortunate to be your own beautiful subject to study...how you do that is amazing in itself. Very cool."
