..Well, okay, the first time I ever saw Mike's stream I was completely blown away, and I still am everytime I look at it. He has some of the best ideas ever, the amount of creativity he has is just incredible. If I ever need inspiring all I have to do is look at Mike's photos.
I don't really know how to put all I admire and love about his photos into words, so I geuss I'll just leave it at this until I start to ramble xD

"wow, there are no words really to explain how much i LOVE his photos. i remember when i first joined flickr, i really didnt have any inspiration for my pictures and then i come to this AMAZING photostream.
each picture has the most unique ideas and honestly, if you looked all over flickr to find another photostream like this, you couldnt. its not possible. this is as original and unique and special as it gets.
not only is from a second story. a great photographer, but you can tell that he is a really nice person. i only talked to him once, but he was very polite. im glad i get to see this amazing person's talent :)"2nd July, 2009
