  "Natalia makes magic with a camera. I've been here about a year and from the very early days, I've followed her stream closely. She has a beautiful eye for naturey crap, macro, and portraits of her beautiful daughter. She's definitely a flickr icon, and her work is deserving of all the attention it gets - every image is carefully crafted and exquisitely processed.
  
  Thanks, Natalia, for your beautiful work...it's a rich source of inspiration for many!"

  "I noticed that alot of people that wrote testimonials for Natalia called her their inspiration.
  I too am counted as one of them.
  From almost day one on Flickr when I saw one of her images I was hooked. It may have been a waterdrop shot, which is why i started shooting waterdrops. But her shots aren't "just waterdrops". There is a simple elegance to them, always well composed and full of beautiful color.
  And then there's the gorgeous self portraits and photos of her little girl, all of them creative and enchanting.
  You would think someone who is as popular on Flickr, with so many contacts and 5000 unread Flickr mails, wouldn't have the time or energy to visit many streams. But she does, and always leaving fun comments to boot!
  I consider myself very fortunate to have found your stream Natalia, and you truly are my inspiration! I am sure one day, I will see you famous.....and I will say "I knew her when!!"
  Thank you for sharing your beautiful visions with us!

  "Natalia's work is simply stunning, every image she uploads is brilliant. She masters many different types of photography from macro to portrait. All of her images have perfect composition, amazing colours , awesome bokeh and great use of dof.
  
  As stated in the testimonial below mine. I too hunt for Natalia's images within my contacts photos. Constantly looking forward to what I am about to be amazed with.
  
  Besides her obvious talent in photography Natalia is also a very kind and caring person. Willing to answer my questions even though she has something like 2000 unread Flickr Mail messages.
  
  Well done and thank you. I am looking forward too viewing many more of your beautiful images"

  "Natalia never ceases to amaze me in the work that she produces! Whether it is a portrait, a droplet, or a snail, her images always tell a story that has a way of grabbing my attention! In fact, when I click to view my contacts, I always search to see what SHE has posted before looking at anyone else's images! (shhh, don't tell anyone)

  "I'm not ashamed to say that I first visited Natalia's stream because I saw her beautiful face on one of her portraits. I stayed because her skills mean she has an amazing portfolio. From flowers to weddings. From children to liquid sculpture. Fun and serious both.
  
  This lady can turn her hand to any genre and rock it."

  "Well what can I say?? Not only is Natalia a wonderful children's photographer, but she always creates the most amazingly beautiful flower macros. Now, you might think flower macros have been overdone, but wait til you see HERS. Pure beauty and STUNNING artistry and a completely unique way of capturing flower macros. Beaaaautiful!"

  "Natalia is a constant source of inspiration to me, and I have to say frustration too, because every time I think my own photography is improving she comes out with something that leaves me for dust! Her productivity is amazing for someone who has a full-time job and a small child. Natalia is also a very generous person and taken the time to answer a barrage of questions and give helpful advice. Thanks!"
