    "A great artist, probably my most cultured friend here on Flickr. Amazing renditions of different things all great. Her photostream is that of museum quality. Very good visit here."

    "A truly original artist and wit, Ladies and Gentlemen;- with typical verve and candour she will hunt down your funny bone, shake you awake, and get you in the mood to party. When in doubt, remember "Boots is Best"!"

    "Oh so much to be learned from wind-up whales, griffins, terradactyls and brill bootsartemis... the flickr goddess of the wilderness, the hunt and wild animals, fertility, and fabulous (yet rugged) footwear"

    "Sonia, a true asset to life and living. She possesses a special spark and glow that makes my days always a little brighter ---- seeing her comments on my photo page and when i venture over to hers. She creates and shares the very positive creativeness and specialness of life and shares it in her photos and comments. I am very fortunate she is a flickr pal of mine. Thanks Sonia, for your spark and spirit you share.

    smiles : )"

    "I can not remember a time when Bootsartemis hasn't cracked me up. Take a normal comment stream and add her to it and you've instantly got WHAM! BAM! BOOM! - good times. I love her fun photographic eye, wonderful sense of humor and thoughtful comments. Can we clone her?"

    "boots (not to be confused with bootsartemis-gordon) is one of those rare people who makes any corner of the virtual world brighter by her presence there. she snaps a pretty mean photo, too. and, of all my friends, her birthday is the easiest for me to remember!"

    Trois Têtes (TT) says:

    "Sonia is an enigma, no an enigma wrapped in mystery. Who is she? Where is she? Does she exist?

    One thing that is not in doubt however is that she takes wicked photos and makes even mored wicked comments.

    That's enough isn't it?"

    Who the flickr is Johnson says:

    "Sonia is a promising and multitalented young artist in the visual, verbal, auditory, and literary arts, as well as in Ohio. Her photography displays a distinct idiosyncratic style, and her comments are brilliant and wickedly funny. Without Sonia, flickr wouldn't be the same."

    "By jove! B.A. is as bright as a button and doubtless has drawers chock full of both them and Ramones CDs.* Crocheted curiosities and quirky quips are a secondary speciality. Witty enough to be an honorary European!! Hurrah!!!
    (*I have never listened to these chaps but she seems to like mentioning them to unsettle my sensibilities)."
