me

thank you so much for your kind visiting, comment and invitations. I really appreciate you always! I hate having to say this, please don't paste huge or animated icons and too multiple invitations, I'll delete them.
I'm happy that a lot of people see and enjoy my work, and I love your kind invitations. but I'm not interested in awards and comment codes without their own word. I'm not a comment and award collector. I'm going to delete awards and icons without their own words.
dear admins, if you don't accept that, please don't invite me. I hope you'll understand... I don't reject not all award groups and icons.

    ""I have a great appreciation for Kiyo,her art, and especially her friendship. Her work is bold, unique, often poetic, and shows an eagerness to experiment. Every image is fresh, and each new reveal demonstrates her technique and sophistication have been further refined, beautifully. Whatever she attempts, Kiyo has a gift for making the very most of it, and that is something wonderful.""

    "A kiyo no la conozco personalemente...estamos muy lejos...pero su arte desprende una sensibilidad pocas veces vista.
    Aunque la distancia sea enorme,comienzo a conocerla a través de sus fotografías.
    Desprenden un alma creativa y solitaria...es que la soledad es buena para acompañar al artísta para concentrarse en su trabajo.
    Un abrazo en la distancia...
    Ciro"

    "kiyo's art transcends words like beautiful and moving, although it is both of those. she explores and exposes the frailty and power of the emotional and physical world though images rarely glimpsed outside of dreams. she creates scenes unknown but instantly recognizable because they resonate so well with us.

    in addition to being an artist she is also a hugely supportive and generous person. i am thrilled to have connected with her here."

    "I always come back to see what this girl is producing. I consider her to be a real artist, with a great eye for (un)common things and a master in post processing. As of late, I see her experimenting with textures a lot, a craft she performs very well. This girl truly has been a source of inspiration for me. Keep those eyejewels coming, kakhabad. Respect!"

    "Kakhabad is an amazing photographer with a generous spirit. Every time she takes a new photograph, I am left in awe of her talent. I hope that her expressive images become known to a wider audience. They are evocative and inspiring, and I think we are all better for the beauty she brings to the world of photography."
