  "Anne's photo stream is one of kind. Her photography is more than just that. It evokes a feeling, gives you pause, all the while beckoning you for at least a second look. It is the art of photography in it's finest. We are so proud that she represents Alabama so well. Her works of art are stunning. Her eye for composition and detail amaze me. She doesn't miss a thing. The best part of Anne, is just how warm and eloquent she is."

  "Anne never ceases to leave me in awe when I visit her stream. A truly gifted and inspirational photographer - one that I can truly say has both inspired me and taught me so many things, simply by viewing her work. Her stream has flowing waterfalls, grand landscapes, rich forests, and so many diverse and wonderful things. Through her eyes and her lens you will see the world in a magnificent and beautiful light! A cherished friend....thanks Anne!"

  "First of all I want to apologize if there are some writen mistakes, English is not my native language. Said that, I feel to write in English because I want to express in Anne´s own language my admiration for her work but also for her friendship and warm approach to those like me, who have commented or visited this page.
  
  I am not a photographer, and as I have always said I approach photography from what I feel it is beautiful or moves me or causes me admiration or emotions. Good, positive emotions.
  
  Anne´s photographies always does this magic, the composition, the colors, the lights, always has the power of leaving me in awe.
  
  I came across Anne´s page by chance, and when I saw for the first time one of her waterfall photos, I immidiately made her a contact of mine. I frequently choose great photographers with the hope some day I´ll be able to learn something, and in this page I always find something to admire and to learn from.
  
  But besides this, she is so sensitive and kind to really appreciate comments that I make when one of her photos leaves me speechless (most of the time) something that doesn´t happen very often with other photographers who hardly notice comments or feedbacks.
  
  I became a permanent visitor to her page, and feel a very strong respect for her as an artist, and really would like to meet her some time and be honoured with her frienship. She has been able to read a lot of me and my family and friends, which means that Anne is a very sensitive person who really cares for comments that are done from the heart.
  
  I do not feel I can talk about the quality of her photos since I´m not qualified, but they are so powerful or so beautiful that almost always they bring me emotions, well being sensations and nice feelings.
  
  After visiting her page I always finish with a smile in my face and my eyes filled with impecable compositions and exquisite aesthetics.
  
  I call her (very respectfully) Mrs. Waterfall, because I can´t think of better waterfall photos than those Anne shoots, but more than I can say, is her work.
  
  Please, do not lose more time reading this, get to see her Gallery and be ready for an exquisite tour to beauty and unforgettable images.
  
  Thank you Anne for your photos, and your so kind comments!"

  "Una de las mejores artistas de flickr, para mi gusto.
  
  Es una maravilla visitar esta galería de obras de arte de todo tipo: macros, paisajes fantásticamente bien reflejados, animales, nieblas, ocasos..., pero unos de los mejores momentos son esas cascadas de agua que transmiten la calidad de esta mujer.
  
  El álbum de imágenes es una gama de lo más variado y agradable cada una de las capturas.
  
  Fascinantes momentos de una tierra sin contaminación, que ya nos costará cuidar para nuestros descendientes.
  
  Cuida de tus imágenes y tus capturas, ya que son dignos del paraiso terrenal.
  
  Me encantan todas tus capturas.
  
  Un abrazo.
  
  Jabi"

  "Okay....okay....it's about time I wrote this for Anne. I mean, I'm only the 31st person to write her a testimonial. I might be the latest....but hopefully not the leastest. :-)
  
  What to say about Anne. What to say....what to say....? Well, basically, the woman has a true artist's eye and a passion for photography that is infectious. She and I have gone shooting several times together and during that time, I've not only appreciated her eye for the shot, but her incredible sense of humor and insight into the world around us.
  
  Sure, she's a HUGE Democrat and I'm a HUGE Republican, but that doesn't mean we can't be friends and appreciate each other's talent does it..........does it?
  
  Keep up the good work, Anne. :-)"

  "A quick glance at ~Amabile~'s photostream will show you an excellent collection of images, but spend some time to have a longer view and you won't regret it. You will discover many exceptional images and some truly magical landscapes. Each image is worthy of its space on the photostream, and is a perfect example of the thought, time and talent that has gone into her art.
  
  Beautiful"

  "Anne has a way of capturing the world around her in both interesting and artistic ways. I enjoy her styling to photos that make them more than "just" a snapshot. Impressive composition combined with creative post processing end up as wonderful works of art in her stream. I value having Anne in my stream and the inspiration it provides me."

A wide subject matter which she deftly moves through bringing art and joy into my world via my computer. Lingering through her photostream is time well spent and a joy.

  "Take a commonplace, clean it and polish it, light it so that it produces the same effect of youth and freshness and originality and spontaneity as it did originally, and you have done a poet’s job. The rest is literature. - Jean Cocteau

  "What can one say about your photos when almost everything has been already said? Please let me try it this way: You catch the light with your camera, the light changes into data on the memory card, and what finally comes out is always a miracle.
  
  That's why I don't need to understand how you do it - That's why I can simply settle back and enjoy. Thank you!"

  "Anne has descended into my FlickrLife with a flourish of colour and style. If you've read anything on this page, you know she is kind, loyal and uplifting.... all this on top of being extremely talented. I feel a kinship in how Anne sees the world around her: so often a picture seems exactly what I would have wanted to do (though I dare not try to compare or compete lest severe depression sets in...)
  
  My days are enriched by Anne's art, and by her presence her on Flickr. She is a rare find, indeed."

  "Anne is a great Flickr friend.
  She always has time and always offers words of encouragement and great advice. Her macro work is fantastic and these pictures are an inspiration, so much so she is costing me money..... I am saving for a macro lens.
  She is a true artist, with a great eye for composition and colour and I must admit that when I see her name on my contact list it is always the first photo I open. I guess here I just want to thank her for not only sharing her photographs but also time. Thanks so much Anne."

I find myself staring at Anne's creations, examining what she's done, and admiring the way she sees and presents things. And best of all, Anne is a really nice person. Anne, thanks for being a great Flickr friend. You're an inspiration!"

  ""Anne is a great photographer, fabulous and brilliant. She can bring out so vividly and beautifully colours in her pictures, just magic. I think she has a special eye for details and colours and I'm proud to view her works and to have her as friend in Flickr! It's really been an honour! I love her visits and comments...always so kind and nice, always inspiring.
  
  Obrigado, Anne!

  "It is always a treat to come and view Anne's photostream. Unlike most of the rest of us and our photostreams, you know whenever you check in with Anne, you will not find a "dud" among her photos. You feel that you are at an art gallery... and a very good art gallery at that!
  
  The best thing about Anne's photos is that she just has that eye that most of us dream of. Her subjects are very well composed, and very well chosen. The colors are always so vibrant, the photos are full of life! She can take some of the most ordinary things, and make us see them in a whole new light.
  
  One other thing.... the best thing about Anne? When she comments back on your replies, or on your photos... it's like you are talking to a friend you have known for a long time. This just tells you that like her personality, her art comes from her heart.
  
  Now go and look through her photos. I dare you to tell me you are not impressed! And, Anne?.... I'm looking forward to your next photo, as always."

  ""I have to write the same words again with one addition:
  Meanwhile Anne became a really true friend always uplifting me and my mood!!!
  
  Whenever you are in a bad mood go to "Amabile's" photostream and you'll find the right medicine for uplifting your mind in looking at her wonderful photos.
  She has the unique gift to show her surroundings in a lovely, deep and sometimes funny way added with perfect matching titles and captions.
  You can learn a lot about how to catch the right moment or how "to do and arrange macros"
  
  Good is being her contact - better is she's calling you a friend because behind the camera is a heartwarming person AND a personality you can count on :)
  
  Thank you, dear Anne for your always nice and lovely visits and comments - be sure I'm waiting for and I appreciate ALL a lot.
  
  I'm really proud being one of your friends :)
  
  Go on with your wonderful work - you're always an inspiration

  "I recently joked with Anne that she is the "Tiger Woods of Explore". All joking aside the photography on her site is consistantly stunning- her macro work represents some of the best on flickr. The simplicity of some of her images is so deceptive- I dare anyone to try it and obtain attempt similar results! Anne is also one of the friendliest and most giving people out there and is one of the reasons I enjoy flickr so much. Thank you."

  "Amabile in Italian means loveable! Aimable in French. I am French and I love ~Amabile~'s work. Then I came to know Anne and exchange with her regularly through Flickrmail. And now I love Anne.
  
  Anne is an explorer. She seeks beauty where it is and captures it, snares it, grabs it in any way, at any moment, at any place:
  flowers, birds, buildings, old barns, graffiti, lovely faces, with a wide angle, a tele or a macro lens, day or night, dawn or dusk, countryside or city.
  
  Anne is an Explorer. Statistics? As of today she showcases 125 photos on her stream. Out of which an incredible 64 of them made it to Explore! I joked with Anne that she probably had some special pact sealed to be such an Explorer.
  
  But no, it his her talent, it is her sense to feel the pulse on Flickr, it is her quest for the highest standards that explain such an unusual and phenomenal success. When I make it to Explore, I am surprised. When a new pic from Anne does not make it, I'm insane! What! Why not! How come?
  
  Please visit her, let yourself be charmed and explore the explorer's wonderful world of photography!
  
  May I add that Anne is an active and intelligent person, a warm and caring friend, a person with humor and a good character and that I love to chat with her in French.
  
  Merci, mon exploratrice, tu es aimable, très aimable, molto amabile!"

Each image has something different to tell me and I try and learn as much as possible from them. She is also very active with her contacts and passes lots of good critism, which I enjoy.

  "Anne is the flickr friend everyone loves to have. She has a great personality and sense of humor, and is very generous with her visits. Her photography is outstanding. Its the kind that makes you smile and brightens up a dark mood. I will have to say that when it comes to macro she is definately one of the best. We will have to go on a shoot one day and you can teach me a thing or two. Keep up the great work, and always looking foward to your next post =)"

  "In the short while I have known Anne she has managed to captivate me with her heartfelt photographs and with her witty personality. The quest for diversity is at the very core of her approach to digital. Anne’s pictures are brilliant, touching and she has been showing a constant increase in quality, technical ability and a great feeling for the details, which enables her to capture and master the essence of nature in its beauty and simplicity, even when she just melts subjects into wonderful paint like images. Anne reveals a natural talent and potential that has always been there just waiting to be woken up. Sensitivity, elegance, emotion – but very delicately transferred - are attributes that come to my mind when I think of Anne’s photo stream: a beautiful collection, to be savoured and felt !
