    "I have been following PSA on Flickr for many years now. Stalking him, actually - but he has yet to report me to the authorities. For that reason, alone, I would love him. But it goes beyond mere stalking. He has a wicked sense of humor, takes wildly interesting photos and *gasp*, actually uses film. Viva La PSA!"

    "He has good taste in music, which is to say, he liked the music I sent him once. Also, his daughter has the same name as me (for now). That's kinda cool."

    "Garry has a unique style and an even more unique outlook on life. His photostream shows it. I especially love his baby shots (ciggies and all). So glad he's got more on the way. Ahem. You sly one you! ;)"

    "PSA's pictures are full of humanity, which is how it should be. Increasingly, humanity is full of PSA (I mean his genes) and we will all be much the better for it."

    "The best photographers on flickr tend to find a niche that suits them.

    Pig Sty Avenue is part of this group of excellence. His black and white documentary shots of his little piece of the U.K. are stunning in the way that they crystallize a sense of time and place.

    Plus... he's got one of the best models ever living in his house, the indomitable Molly.

    Enjoy."

    "we think PSA adds a certain sense of ennui and excitement, if that combination is possible, to the dmu proceedings... and are huge, hippy-dippy number one fans of the photos he posts."

    "Pig Sty Avenue has a refined and sophisticated sense of humor. Well, as refined and sophisticated as any member of DMU could ever hope to have anyway. Despite his time slumming in the underbelly of Flickr society he remains one cool dude!"

    "A picture paints a thousand words and PSA moulds them into a narrative document of community, family and life. His photographic work resonates with the stuff of life. I am proud to have partaken of his fiery seed."
