  "As gaivotas desenham triângulos no céu para a Luísa, porque só ela consegue perceber a geometria escondida das coisas. Tudo é ordem no mundo dela, uma ordem suave como a luz de Lisboa. Gosto muito de tudo o que ela faz. E sobretudo gosto ainda mais de a ter conhecido.
  
  Feliz Natal para ti minha amiga."

  "*L counts you as a friend...então não há razão pra medo: posso observar de perto como ela mistura simplicidade e magia diariamente e sempre com um sorriso suave e uma surpresa que ela provavelmente guarda no chapéu (*L me deleita sempre com seus olhos puros e me mostra um portugal ainda mais poético do que eu acreditava existir--se isso for bruxaria eu sou fã e gostaria de também ser filho e aprendiz,"

  "*L has a wonderful eye. She can see shapes and colours where no one else sees anything at all. Look at her pictures, she'll teach you how to see."

  artolog says:

  "Luisa has a way of seeing the world that is both simple and inspiring. In her photographic imagination, not only will inanimate objects sing and dance, but they will do so with previously unheard of grace."

  artelisa says:

  "Luísas work has really an admirable special magic. Her photos are bewitching and intriguing and allways a great inspiration for me.... and i appreciate the creative way of Luísa to communicate in this "virtual reality" with such a vitality and cordiality.
  She is one of the people who make flickr to a piece of "real-life".
  thank you therefore"

  "«On ne voit bien qu'avec le coeur.»
  -- Saint-Exupéry
  
  De cette façon (avec le coeur) cette merveilleuse sorcière voit, chaque jour, ce que les autres laissent passer sans rien remarquer.
  
  Elle est vraiment mon héroïne."

  fotogail says:

  "*L has that magical eye, and more important, her interactions are playful. perhaps now and then you will be picked up by *L like a seashell, and placed on the sand next to a beautiful stone and a feather you suddenly want to look at. you find you are seeing things in the world and thinking "this is something Luisa might see." something that is suddenly muito *Lindo."

  "Luísa has been a great inspiration to me, as a photographer and artistic sorceress. She takes sand and makes continents and carefully constructs thick shadows in her basement. These will one day take over the world and i will live to see the dream. Thank you, *L!"
