  "*MAR is great!
  His straycat's photos are so full of life. And every picture has it's own mood. I'm learning a lot from his photostream.
  Good luck to you *MAR!"

  "MAR has an amazing eye for light and shadows, composition and depth of field - yet that never distracts from the emotion he invokes from his pictures. A true ambassador of stray cats. He gives them dignity in their world - one which is harsh, and not always kind to them. From his pictures, he stirs within us a sense of wonderment at these amazing cats that albeit all against their favour, still hold themselves with resolute grace."

  "Mar is the best. His photos are so touching, some of them tender, some of them sad. I think he should publish a book with these images.
  In his photostream you can see all feline behaviour, love, freedom, solitude, sadness...He captured all the feline world.
  Keep it up Mar, not for us, for them!! Maybe with your images you will touch cold hearts, maybe people will love animal a little more, and see they're not "only animals".
  Thank you for sharing these wonderful images with us."

  "M.A.R's photos are always a joy to see. They are full of compassion and appreciation for the beauty in simple things. His stray cat pictures move me every time - not just cute cats, but creatures struggling to live on the street - while remaining free. M.A.R.'s technical skills inspire novices like me to make better pictures. Bravo, my friend!"
