I'm too young to give up trying, too old to still be learning.
But someone in my bloodline (50% of which has YET to contact his daughter) had this crazy genetic issue that was passed to me. I can't stop feeding my creativity. When I do, I become rather depressed, and I contemplate eating small Irish children.
Sometimes I will wander from my home with my camera and shoot for hours and hours, ignoring my cell phone and eating cheese. Other times I will slip on an old t-shirt, wander to my office, and stay up for days on end editing old images and trying to salvage moments from my past.
When I'm not buried in this need to make something, I'm feeding my id. Sometimes you feed my id too. Thanks for all the comments and the adds (some of which are reciprocal, I know).
I love being faved, and I love testimonials. Please feel free to either, or neither.
And thanks for looking.

"Funkybug..
Where does one start? I love what she brings to the groups levels and she is always on my case when I Screw up..So I know everybody gets some. Her sense of humor is well matched with mine and she does love a gud yuk.
I have watched her grow by leaps and bounds and am always finding new twists in how she sets her images up. Her sense of timing and color awareness are things that don't come naturally. You help keep me fresh and thinking anew.
Thanks FB"31st December, 2008

"funkybug introduced me to some really fun times here at Flickr with her TCF challenge group - I got hooked on that one. Her work sometimes borders on genius, if I must say so. Her PP can make an ordinary photo look like a million and her leadership skills show a well-balanced person with an ultimate understanding of her craft and a fun-loving spirit to boot! Visit her gallery often and it will be time well spent - we can all learn something "funky" from her."

"funky has helped me so much with even the basic of photoshop touch ups... I think she helped because I'd constantly be asking "how" so it was a quick way to shut me up :D
Cheers Funky!"21st March, 2008

"I think in the two years I have been a part of Flickr I have written 3 testimonials. Here is 4. As with the others what draws me in is the emotion from each image. Funkybug has drawn me in. Wow!! Look through her stream and you will see what I mean. I find myself coming back over and over. They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Well here in this stream there is no question about that!!"

"The imagination exercises a powerful influence over every act of sense, thought, reason,
-- over every idea.
Latin Proverb
Funkybug has the most inspirational imagination... I adroe flipping through her photostream. Her photography is stunning and artistic and often moving.
She is a true artist and a beautiful person and I hope to get to know her better."20th August, 2007

"If you are looking for a member who has grown a lot since first coming on here this is the person for you. I looked through her shots and the ones lately have been crazy good. CRAZY GOOD I tell ya so watch her stream of photos as I am anxious for the next shots to come out. I love her talent and have no problem saying it. I appreciate her always commenting on my photos as well and take them as great compliments. She has givin' me the best compliment to date.
Keep 'em coming. :)

"I met this wonderful Funky Girl a few years ago, thru a blog & she captured my soul the way she wrote. I really felt a "kinship" with her because of her passion for life, Italy, and wanting to be a free spirit. She challenged my mind & made my spirit grow by seeing new view points that I never would have considered. Somewhere along the way, she started introducing her readers with her talent ~ of being a skilled photographer. That blog is now gone, but her master photos are showcased in flickr. I yearn to learn from her. I sincerely wish I lived closer ~ just for the simple fact that I want to absorb one ounce of her talent. She needs to have her talent exploited to the fullest & showcased for the world to see. I have so much respect for who she is & what she does. Everyone should have a FunkyBug in their lives.

Olga Gerrard (reeling in miracles) says:
"For sublime, creative, humorous, gorgeous, thoughtful, helpful, artistic, witty, fun, though provoking, (well, provocative too) images and repartee, one needs look no further than Funkybug. She is the apple of my eye. I feel honored to have met her on Flickr, and am a devout follower and fan. Big time."
