"If I knew how to take a good photograph, I'd do it every time."
- Robert Doisneau
"They're all the same, but each one is different
from every other one. You've got your bright
mornings and your dark mornings. You've got
your summer light and your autumn light. You've
got your weekdays and your weekends. You've
got your people in overcoats and galoshes,
and you've got your people in shorts and
T-shirts. Sometimes the same people,
sometimes different ones. And sometimes the
different ones become the same, and the same
ones disappear. The earth revolves around the
sun, and every day the light from the sun hits
the earth at a different angle."
Auggie (Harvey Keitel)

hellophotokitty says:
"Every once and a while, I come across a photographer on flickr whose dynamic stylistic approach to their art inspires and moves me - Phil is one of those people. His ability to create and capture cinematic moments bring out the delightful musical elements in his fashion/band photography, and intimate soulful presence in each subject in his portraits. Watch out New York - as soon as this man finds his permanent place in the city, the art world will never be the same.
And did I mention that he was real gentleman?

"His stream says it all - well, a good part of it I'm sure.
The rest is probably much better.
Superlative stuff."30th November, 2007

the known universe says:
"Phil and I are such great pals that when we saw each other in the bagel shop, neither one of us said hello. Nice pictures, though. (But where are the dancing girls? You have dancing girls?)"

[kren] says:
"To change all the other serious and cliche comments below:
Hog is a wonderful photographer with an acute sense of composition. He uses DoF in such beautiful ways that he is immediately recognizable among the flickr crowd. His subjects are always distinguished and his use of color is unique."10th August, 2006
-
Mr-Wild says:
"I was in the garden and I saw a little thing in the ground and I pulled it out and it was a little Hog and I fed it some cornbread and it burped and then I put a mojito in its little hand and it grew big and it giggled and then ran away over the fields completely naked with its bum showing and everything.
That's how Hog happened. AND THAT'S A FACT"26th June, 2006
-
Archie Pix says:
"Few people know that Hog is composed entirely of ununtrium. He is presumably a solid at 298 K Colour and is probably metallic and silvery white or grey in appearance."

Karana Banana says:
"He seems very nice and tolerant of drunken ramblings. Which is something I always look for in friends."

♥ shhexycorin ♥ says:
"Hog has been pressing my buttons for some time now. He seems to favour the one that makes me go "beep" and the one that makes a cuckoo come out of arse.
He has excellent taste, as I'm sure you'll agree. Somewhat like a kumquat, dipped in fanny batter. Delicious."24th February, 2006

Mr Luke Harby says:
"If the Hog was reduced to a quadriplegic, I would carry him.
He knows this."12th January, 2006

Dr Shipman says:

"If you spend any time with the Hog you won't be short changed on quality or quantity.
His face writes cheques that his butt CAN cash.
When I grow up I wanna be like the Hog."8th March, 2005
