  The Couple Next Door says:

  "Manny IS SO Arizona! He takes some of the most interesting Phoenix & suburbs pics I have seen on here. He is intelligent and has a good sense of humor too. He is one of my favorite Flickr friends. If he ever publishes a book, I'm in. Don't miss his photos! They're awesome."

  "Every time I come over to check out what Manny has shot lately, I am amazed! His style and the content of what he captures is totally my style. I am excited that I have kind of met him through his photos and if I ever cross paths with him I hope to be able to take a few hours and shoot a location together."

  "Hmmm, "Superman" possesses x-ray vision, telescopic vision, microscopic vision, and heat vision. His eyes can also perceive a full electromagnetic spectrum including infrared and ultraviolet frequencies of radiation. "Superman" possesses a genius level intelligence and a photographic memory. These capabilities were the direct result of exposure to a "yellow sun". He can also turn coal into diamonds. Thus, I maintain that "mannydiller" is the actual secret identity of "Superman" (and I believe that if you could look in his wallet you'd find a membership card for The League of Super Heroes)."

  "mannydiller makes me want to be a photographer. He also makes me want to drive over and roll Eggleston's yard, but I'm not at liberty, right now, to further discuss his powers of mind control."

  James and Karla Murray Photography says:

  "We wait for Manny's new photos with the fevered anticipation only seen in a methodone clinic line a hour or so before the doors open. Manny Diller has got skills you don't even realize until an hour or so later, after looking at his flicks, you realize you are still thinking about them and driving around sizing up potential subjects that will allow you to copy him and bite off him."

  "manydiller breathes life into the hollow suburban buildup, nearly excusing it.

  Annene von Durchgerockt says:

  "mannydiller is one of the most influential photographers on Flickr. But like his photos, he inspires in a quiet mode that is never obvious, forced or false. He is something new."

  "pointing out what the rest of us dont see, mannydiller consistently makes the most anthropologically charged images out of our suburban world. he is the woah."

  "Through his photographic suburbanscapes of Phoenix AZ, Manny has managed the impossible task of capturing that place we've all come to know, that place with no center where there isn't any there there. He can show you more about the human condition in one parking lot line than you really want to know. So take a good look through these and don't skip because this man is a great artist. He's found the world in a piece of cinderblock. And if he can stare it in the face, so can you."

  "The first time I went through Manny's photostream I couldn't stop smiling (and laughing). I'm not a versed aesthete so I can't tell you why I find his images both interesting and compelling. All I know is that something really brilliant is going through his head."

  "Manny is my kind of photographer, documenting the subjects that many of us pass by everyday. He has an eye for structure."

  "mannydiller has a magical way of making the most banal structures, uninteresting landscapes and forgettable scenery... dare I say it, captivating.
  
  His work demands to be seen in book form or grand scale for those that don't get it, to get it."
