rob surreal's photostream
|
unique, creative, and one of a kind.

i picked up this thriving interest in photography for a few reasons.. iv always had this creative vibe for things and i also wanted to be able to look back at what i did and where i have been to remember what a great experience it was. i started with writting poetry and creative writing, and now photography. i love taking shots of landscapes and nature to the random household object.. i really enjoy capturing the ordinary and making it unordinary.. so some of my pictures i post here, on flickr .
***If you would like to use any of my photos email me via flickr or rdraio@gmail.com
a group i started for the creative and unique..

and my other group for the photo freaks of today..

"I am glad to see Rob stopped putting his photos in so many groups. He is a young talented photographer. Now that he is not being penalized for being so group happy, his pictures are finally making the explore pages for all to see. He is one of the fastest rising stars on flickr. I think he never sleeps cause he always is around being social. It has been fun getting to know him. His group Unique Touch is one of the best groups on flickr. For a good time call Rob. His number is on every girls bathroom wall.... No just kiddding! He's a great guy. Check him out!"

"Rob takes beautiful landscape pictures but what makes him such an awesome photographer is that he can take a picture of anything and turn it into a very nice piece of art. Some of his images will get you dreamy, others will get you thinking. A multi-talented photographer. Just go through his photostream and see it for yourself."

"Rob is a loyal flickr contact/friend (who likes to call me Linda even though it's not my name :P he's probably the only one that I allow to call me that ;) ). Rob has some great shots and constantly posts new and different photos that make his stream interesting and diverse. Thanks for sharing!"

Willshoot says:
"A man just starting to realize his potential in both photography and in life. Although he just picked up a camera, his photos display a unique perspective. His shots do not attempt to overpower the beautiful settings in which he shoots. Likewise, shots of ordinary settings become extraordinary through his lens."
