About Ocell / Chris Owens  

Miller Taylor says:
"Two photographers hang on my wall. Chris Owens and Ansel Adams.

And the Ansel Adams is just a calendar."

p.murf says:
"one of the most talented people i have the privilege to know personally, yet also one of the most modest. his ability and craft in photography & design surpass many others, but he'd be the last person to flaunt it. Chris also never hesitates to share his knoledge and skill with those wishing to learn. His right index finger also posseses a "magic touch" given to him at birth by the gods of photography."

::Taylor:: says:
"It would be an incredible experience to be able to spend a day taking photos with Chris. His style, humor, intelligence, and talent make his photos unique and brilliant. This is one cool design guy!"

Mollie Montana says:
"ocellnuri is my hero. Every time he posts something, I think "Damn, man; that's just amazing." I wish I could be as awesome as him."

bdmckeown says:
"One of the very few flickratti who can truthfully claim to have been "touched by fubuki," Chris brings a precision and a passion to his photography in the fullest possible sense. A technical genius, a talented artist, and a truly wonderful friend - all of these describe Chris. It is rare that I come across a person who can so effectively combine a mastery the technical (and for me, unfathomable) realm with a fabulous creative sense. So often it is one or the other. Chris is a geek. Chris is also an artist. And most importantly, Chris is a genuinely benevolent and caring person."

eshm says:
"ocellnuri is a dedicated patriot to Geekdom and is a dangerous man with a camera. Beauty can run but ocellnuri will find it and capture it. Turns out that's not all he does -- he is one for community and brings his captured beauty to Flickr to share with the world, shielded by the Creative Commons.

Whether its the guts of a box, talking the digital music revolution, or capturing life it its most delicate moments ocell is there to observe and share. Also, with his eyes and his lens he can illustrate the sincere devotion to his equivalent. And with the right kind of eyes you can almost feel the emotion jumping out of his pixels. There are people with cameras, and there is ocellnuri.

They don't make ocellnuri's like this anymore. Take your time and smell the roses, this man's garden is large.

You have no idea how disappointed I am you cannot have HTML in these. Look at my weblog to see what this *should* have looked like: sinceretheory.net..."

Darin Cassler says:
"Ocellnuri is one of the most personable and cooperative co-admins I know. He shows a fantastic sense of humor in his photos that may be lost on many of us."
