  "This is my first time writing a testimonial, so bear with me.
  
  If I had to describe this collection of photos in one word, I would have to say "diverse". Every picture is unique in it's own way and has a story behind it, and each and every one of these photos really trigger my imagination. Overall, these pictures really inspire me. They inspire in so many ways, but mainly they inspire me to keep going. To keep learning all I can about photography, to be my very best, and to discover my own unique style of photography.
  
  Anyway, Cal, your photostream is wonderful. YOU are wonderful. Keep it up! (:"

  "Cal is an inspiration to the aspirational. He may not show those unique characteristics like those "professional" photographers do, but his are always unique in a different way, a fun way to be exact.
  
  From my entire time of being Mr. Penguin's #1 fan, I've never been disappointed whatsoever. :F."

  "Cal,
  
  All of the photos on your photostream are just fantastic and really inspirational. Even when you say that it was a quick picture or that you don't think it is nice, I can assure you they all hold their own esteem.
  
  Every day is different on your stream and I love the subtle way your photographs seem to represent your mood/the kind of day you've had.
  
  All in all, your photographs are amazing and I hope we can meet one day - it would be fantastic to hear some of your advice.
  
  You've also made me more tempted to do a self-portrait, but I haven't got round to it yet...
  
  Jess x"

  "Cal is probably the most inspiring person on my contact list. Each day not only comes with brilliant photos that have been well thought up and edited, but a small snippet of Cal's life and how it ties in with the photograph.
  
  He is a great guy to FlickrMail if you ever have any questions, he will be sure to answer them in great detail (as he has done in the past hahaha). :)"

  "There's something that brings me back to this stream again and again. Cal is so real that it makes me smile on a daily basis. It's not just his photographs but also his words. Flickr is a way to express oneself through photographs, but Cal does so much more. Words are powerful and his are just incredible; he's a real inspiration to me and from what I can see, to many others.
  I hope that his talent and photographic prowess continue to grow, and that opportunities to excel continue to present themselves.
  Cal, thank you for being committed to this and for being such an awesome role model for photographers like me."

Cal has some great shots and a absolutely beautiful silhouette collection which is magnificent!

  "Big up for testimonial thursday...and big big up for Cal. Despite his young age, I notice in Cal's shots a real interest in catching the moment and tell it with sincerity and deep feeling. I really like and appreciate his work. I especially love his unique, cool silhouettes! Follow his stream and learn from him! ;)"

  "Cal is nothing short of an incredible photographer. I've been following him for a while now, and I absolutely love viewing his stream. There's always something new and interesting.
  I'd have to say that his specialties are silhouettes and landscapes, and that's solely because they're my favorites photos on his stream. He really knows how to compose a picture.
  I also love his self portraits. Cal's wonderful at making every self portrait different and new, and something that's really interesting to look at.
  I feel like most of the time his images aren't just something that you look at and say, "oh, isn't that nice". They always seem to have something else to them. I can't even really explain what it is, but there's something that really catches your eye; captures your attention.
  You'll do wonderful with your 365, Cal. I can't wait to see what you do with it :)"

  "Cal is a great flickr friend and I absolutely love his pictures. they're all so creative and the colors and silhouettes are always perfect. I actually remember first finding one of his photos and I thought wow I have to check out his stream. and I'm glad I did.
  I can't wait to see more of his 365. I know he'll be able to do it :]"

  "For many people, they could take pictures for a whole week and only get one or two shots they actually like. Cal, I've seen that you've taken many shots in a day before and they all turn out wonderfully. This guy has amazing work, especially with his portraits. They always turn out with such great composition and tones. He's extremely creative and I can't wait to see where he goes from here!
  ps: good luck with the 365! hope we both make it to December 13, 2011."
