    ""the big pictures" is a wonderful photographer. Her photographs are not just animal pictures - they are more than that. She captures the character of the animals, not just their image. For this type of photography you can see that she has empathy for the animals as well as possessing the necessary photographic skills."

    "I've been a big fan of The Big Pictures photographs ever since I joined flickr. She has an amazing eye, an obvious love for animals and nature, and apparently the free time with which to spend with such things (of course I am envious)! She's also equally adept at photographing people and travel scenes. She's fun and doesn't take herself too seriously. Overall, she's one of flickr's very best!"
