I am an aficionada of beauty, art, and elegance. I see them as God’s gifts for everyone. I believe all people were given these gifts but only a handful takes time to learn how to put a subject amidst the million into focus and appreciate the world’s beauty even in its most tedious state.

I started to appreciate the world and this passion more because of Flickr. It’s more of a gallery of pictures for me --- it’s a gallery of friends. It’s becoming more interesting for me each day because of all those streams I visit and adore so much and of all those people who take time visiting my stream and continuing to inspire me with their wonderful messages.

To all my Flickriffic friends and to all of us who shares the same passion...
TO GOD BE ALL THE GLORY!

    Eric Austria says:

    "Maggy is one of the most prolific, friendliest photographers I've ever met. If there's an award for Miss Congeniality here on flickr, her name would be simply etched to it. Her images reflect her boundless love for life. She is very generous in her comments. Never missing a beat and totally straight from the heart. She's one I've seen that has tremendously progressed in this field with her stunning, macros, landscapes, seascapes, compelling portraits and all because of her eagerness and openness to learn. Very inspirational and admirable quality. She has this smile on her buddy icon which seems to lit flickr a brighter and better place.."

    imago2007 (on Flickr break . . . again) says:

    "I remember my first "real" encounter with Maggy. It was through an e-mail, when she said to me: "I'm hoping to be just like you one day". I did assure her then that she would find her own rhythm, and it would be all hers. Now I can truly say that Maggy has found her own rhythm, and she shows it in so many diverse, stunning, at times magical ways. I have been awed by her seascapes and landscapes. I have feasted my eyes on her floral macros - simple yet powerful. I have been thrilled with her images of caterpillars, tarantulas, snakes and scorpions. She most definitely did not become "just like me". Her spectacular images are all hers - infused with that effervescent personality that is uniquely Maggy.

    Maggy, I know that you will keep re-defining your own rhythm as you continue to grow as a photographer. And I promise to be there with you, to cheer you on, every step of the way. I feel honored and deeply grateful to have you as a friend. - your Ate V"

    "Si Maggy! Ai isang noodles na kinakain na nababalot ng dilaw na plastic na may pulang logo na nakalagay ay Maggy. But seriously Maggy is a very chatty person. She's fun, smart and a good teacher. She taught me how to see in a different perspective. How to be unique by standing on top of a table. Haha Magaling na tao po ito. Maggy folded the world just to let me see what she sees. Thank you."
