    "Exhibiting such delicate touch and sophistication, geisha’s photography delights in the smallest detail. Her work is both ingenious and reverent. Subjects are captured with precise colour, positioning and prose ~ each picture simply enchants the viewer with lovingly constructed detail. Candy floss for the soul."

    "One super-talented vampire chick! Her work is incredible. Her icon is as iconic as they come. She is a master with the 105mm. She’s elusive…her partial SPs tease the flickr world. Helen is one of my favorites in all the flickrverse… for her amazing photography, her wit, and her mystique. Oh, and the occasional taxidermy that appears on her stream is of the highest quality. :-P Thanks, Helen, for making flickr a more caffeinated, better place to hang out!"

    "Well this is a long time overdue. Helen, I think you have been, without doubt, one of the biggest inspirations for me since I joined Flickr. I know I've already told you that but no harm in telling you again. In case you forgot. ;-)

    Ever since I first saw your gingerbread man on 08.08.08 I've been hooked! Is it only 5 months? Feels like longer (in a good way!). Your flower shots are just so special and they are my favourites but the feathers, drops, coffees, cakes, toys, pretty things with bows (!) and landscape shots all have that 'geisha magic'. Please don't ever stop taking photos! *Smooooochies* xoxo"

    "I could wander for hours in Geisha's photostream :) She has the most wonderful eye for design and uses this to produce macro images that reveal amazing things in the hearts of flowers as well as being fine works of art. She does rather well with coffee, too! An inspirational photographer and and great fun to be with on a flickrmeet - thanks, Geisha :)"

    "Helen was probably my first contact who seriously knew how to wow with a flower photo. Look through her stream and you'll see a host of bright and colourful beauties. Don't like flowers? Well, check out her feathers and water drops! A first rate macro photograph and top class mate! xoxo"

    "I have been a huge fan of Helen's wonderful photography for a long time .... this testimonial is sooo overdue. Amateur? - Ha! She is one of the most inspiring photographers on Flickr. Her beautiful shots of flowers go beyond the sublime and her coffee photos are enough to turn anyone into a caffeine addict just by looking at them. Helen also has the most wonderful sense of fun and makes every day on Flickr even more enjoyable!"

    "I can't believe she said she's "a total amateur!" looking through her stream, it's like seeing Georgia O'Keeffe behind the lens. She is the queen of flower macros and all macros in general! Her flower shots, which was how I discovered her stream, gives the viewer such an intimate look at their world through colors and abstractions! I love her stream and I wish you Ms. Geisha, more success and thanks for inspiring and for sharing your vision with us:)"

    "It's always a great time wandering in ~geisha~'s photostream. It simply releases me from chains of worries in daily life. Her photos are little snippets about any simple things that she sees or hears from any corner of her life. It doesn't matter whether her photos get into Explore, because I always need to go back to them to explore more new things!"

    "geisha has shown me more things one can do with a flower than I could ever have imagined. Her work is gloriously colourful with feeling and depth. She is a HUGE inspiration to me.

    She is also a most excellent shooting buddy and a super funky gal & is always great for a giggle and a chat. She has made flickr a warm and friendly place for me and everyone else that is touched by her outstanding photo stream and her beautiful spirit...."

Besides that you are one of the first people I've met here that made me feel at home. Thanks for that and for making me laugh all the time ;-)"
