Hi. Come visit me here :-)

Hi by pica's playground


I'm trying to keep my photostream free of anything colourful and blinking. So, I no longer post my photos in any Flickr groups where I "risk" getting comments with icons in them. And, I don't post in groups with compulsory voting/awarding/commenting/faving rules. I like to think that if anyone is kind enough to leave a comment in my photostream, they do so out of free will and not to fill some commenting quota.

Thanks for visiting!

:-)

    "I not only admire her as a photographer, but also as a friend. Maria, your site has been such a wonderful find. As a designer, I am so impressed with your eye for simple compositions. Simple is not easy to do well and you do it as good as any I've seen. The crazy thing is, you're still green, and I can't wait to see you grow as a photographer. Keep amazing us for years to come."

    "Si les frontières du minimalisme sont ténues, tu t'en es emparé avec, semble t-il, une grande facilité : ton imagination et ta force créative sont tout sauf minimalistes, on y trouve un feeling nordique mais aussi des réminiscences japonaises, et pas seulement dûes au parallèle avec Michael Kenna. Dans tes photos, il y a déjà une signature, la tienne, un regard acéré, une patience et une force, une envie de comprendre et de s'emparer du domaine photographique.
    De l'autre côté du Kategatt, il y a la danoise Kirsten Klein, mais elle reste attachée à une géographie, et il est fascinant de voir ce que tu fais et propose en ce qui concerne Biarritz : une transformation du quotidien, des lieux les plus connus et qui deviennent "revisited" avec ton pinceau photographique et ta modestie et ton humilité combinées avec un réel dessein, une empreinte qui restera longtemps fixée dans nos mémoires..."
