    "First of all, Dawn is so freakin creative...she tries very hard to think outside the box when she is photographing her subjects and always brings a new perspective for us to view. They are always soft, serene and lovely and I think she is an amazing woman. She is funny too and such a great flickr friend, I know when I have been in the dumps she finds the words to cheer me up again! The quality of her art just gets better every month she posts her photos, she rocks! So glad I found her! (: m-"

    "Dawn is, in my opinion, one of the most gifted artists on flickr. Her images and words never fail to touch my heart. They are uniquely personal and inspiring. Whether it's a tiny flower, exquisitely back lit by the early morning sun, or a delightful and hilarious self portrait of her wearing a dunce cap, or a heartrending shot of her hand at a window with words about the loss of her grandmother...they are all unforgettable. Viewing a new image from Dawn makes my day complete."

    "With each visit to Dawn’s photostream, I am inspired and uplifted. Her photos reveal the heart and soul of an artist and the eye of a child looking with wonder at the world. She has developed a style that is uniquely her own. I have never met Dawn, but feel like I know her by what is reflected in her wonderful photography. Her images, kind comments and her enthusiasm encourage me to become a better photographer."

    "Dawn knows who she is in this world, and she’s not afraid to embrace it – a trait that only enhances her genuineness as both an artist and a friend. With a knack for light and color, she twines joy and artistry that inspires and perseveres."

    "Dawn,
    woah, what can I say besides stating the fact that you are absolutely magnificent. You take pictures of things around all of us - things that I wouldn't take a second glance at, and then you focus, add light, colour, bokeh, and they come out as the most beautiful pictures I could ever imagine. You're truly gifted."

    "I think I would classify DawnDH as a photog bokeh bug (in a good way). I found her accidentally by looking through bokeh groups when I first saw the term several weeks ago and I fell in love with her work.

    Not only is her post processing very well executed, she is very good at composition and makes every one of her pieces a bright gem to see. I love seeing one of her pieces in my contact's activity every day."
