    "Tony, is the first person that I've ever written one of these for and it is because he is such an inspiration!

    What I love about his work the most is that the personalities of all of his subjects is depicted within each capture as well as his own amazing personality. His work never fails to amaze me."

    "I could go on for ages about how awesome Tony is, but I'm just going to say for now, that he is probably one of the best flickrfriends you could ever have on this site :)
    His photos are truly amazing, especially street (NYC!) and macro ones, and I can only hope to one day be this skilled at photography. Tony, thanks so much for being such an awesome friend, and your photos and support have helped and inspired more people than you can comprehend. Keep up these brilliant photos!"

    "Tony... is sensitive and sharp, which seems contradictory, but that's Tony... Every morning's visit to his photostream could be a terrifying trek into insanity, playful lunacy or a touching moment. Each is captured and bared for our shock, amusement or heartstrings. You just never know, which is why each visit is worth the trip."

    "If I'm sitting at my computer and smiling, it's quite possibly because I either:
    a) received a sweet little comment from Tony on one of my photos
    or
    b) went onto Tony's stream and saw a perfectly edited, perfectly timed, perfectly everything photograph that just happened to make me smile

    Either way, Tony is both a phenomenal photographer and person. His photographs capture daily life in a stunning way. I aspire to one day be an artistic, inspiring, and kind person like him.

    Never stop shooting, Tony. I'm sure your work and personality will continue to evoke thousands of smiles just like mine :)

    He's a darling, funny, very clever, insanely creative photographer and just a bloody good bloke to be around. I love you and thanks for all the moments you've given in the form of your photographic work. Giggles and awe are common when looking into your stream of photos. Keep it up, never put your camera down. Unless it's for resting your arm for a bit ;)

    My verdict on Tony's photographs is all the same.

    I am ever so lucky to have seen tony's stream, it's my daily vitamin from that day, whether it's for thought or for laughs, it's something to look forward to.

    I am amazed on how many smiles Tony has drawn to flickr users, he deserves all the compliment and praises he's getting, maybe more.

    I've never met Tony 1 or 2, but 3 surely suggests that the previous ones were as epic!

    Please don't EVER stop uploading amazing photographs,

    Tony is a very talented photographer, he's one of the best photographers here on flickr! I love the way he photographs people, i especially like his street project, it's so fascinating to see people doing something whithout their knowledge of knowing to be photographed in that moment.
    His work simply makes me speechless!
    all his photographys are so amazingly creative and inspiring. What more can you ask for? - nothing!

    i thought it is about time i write you one of these. so hear it goes...

    i think you know already how much of a badass you are, with your street shots, but im just going to say it again. B.A. your black and white street shots are what drew me in, those fantastic and hilarious titles and descriptions were what kept me coming back. I mean litterally some of those have me dying over the keyboard.

    Your shots really bring out that art in candid photography.

    Also it amazes me the little community you have going on in your comments, thats some character!

    well i think i have summed up the awesomeness of your stream.

    "What can one say about Tony that hasn't already been said.

    I suppose If you took, all the Wonderlands,blend well with Oz, throw in a bit of Never Never Land, add a dash of Fantasia, a sprinkle of the drunk off your butt scene in Dumbo, a smidgen of the Black Cauldron, mix it all up with a generous heaping of Pink Floyd and bake the living hell out of it, you just might get an idea of what an amazing journey it is to wander through his photo stream.

    His images will assault and entice you into sensory overload but in such a glorious way you'll discover that you don't really mind at all.

    Most know him as the great "father of flickr" I've heard some call him the" Wizard", and all the while he cheerfully insists he is simply Tony3...

    But to me he is Pokey McPokerson, the amazing photographer with the amazing blue eyes and a good friend. :)"

    "Tonnyyy!!
    Before i start talking about his photos, i wanna say stuffs about he himself as a human being. A very nice fun loving person who always inspires you to carry on. I only found him few days back. He has been so very friendly and full of life since then.

    About his photos, the best thing is, he doesn't stick to one particular thing to bore people ..lol ..okay jokes apart. What i was trying to say was, he always comes up with new things. Capturing different things with his artistic camera. Also sometimes he comes up with some fun shots which makes me laugh so much .. haha. He uses different techniques in photos. He can take picture of anything and make it look interesting.

    Most of all he is a very funny and nice person. One of those few people whose words cheers me up always and keeps me going on with my own lame photography .. lol

    Keep Clicking Tony!!"

    "I have only been official Flickr friends with Tony3 for about 6 weeks. Sadly I didn't get to know Tony1 or Tony2 but I 'beliebe' that the Third one is the best to date.

    Although it is a relative short space of time in real terms, it doesn't actually feel that short at all. I recently met Tony in Chester as part of a Flickr Meet up and he was a really top guy :)

    Regarding his photography, which I suppose is what I should be commenting on for the testimonial what can I say. I can't actually comment solely on his images because his personality is stamped through every shot and reading other testimonials for him, not one person has failed to mention what a great guy he is.

    Currently I adore all his candids and street photography- again his own brand of humour is inherent to each image. His Photoshopped selfies convey that humour ten fold and I think this is a key componant in the number of contacts, comments and fav's he recieves on a daily basis. The other being that he knows where he is at. He knows he is a great photographer and he knows where he wants to get to by looking at other Flickr greats for inspiration and advise BUT he doesn't forget those who are where he once was and regularly takes time out to inspire, encourage and teach those using his own tutorials, the gift of pro and regular comments and fav's to their streams.

    This is his uniqueness and why he deserves to do well.

    FTW Tony3!!

    "Okay, so what do you say about Tony, the father of flickr that hasn't already been said by the 400 testimonials before mine? Just think about it, Tony is more than just the owner of Tony1, Tony2 and Tony3, he has also created or admins several groups, hosted "how to" tutorials and has sponsored many a budding photographer. Tony is what is right about flickr, a very talented photographer and editor, and his posts always spawn some sort of digression to another tangent. He is the only person to go to the end of flickr twice!

    And did you notice that when flickr does a major update, Tony changes to a new profile?

    Cheers Tony!

    Tony is an amazing photographer - VERSATILE.

    His concepts, his compositions and the perspective at which he takes his photographs - always a unique take on things. And there is just no question about his technical skills-period.

    He is also a very kind, generous person-with his comments, his feedbacks and his willingness to share his knowledge about this thing we all love - photography.

    Overall, Tony is a great photographer, and I think his friends and his contacts (myself included) is unanimous on one other thing...he is also a good man, a good friend."

    "Tony, what can I say about this guy?

    I knew him way back when he was Tony 1, lol.

    He's one of the very first friends I made here on Flickr, back when I just started out. He always made the effort of leaving me nice comments, even when I thought my pictures sucked. Knowing that a brilliant photographer like Tony though that my pictures were worth looking at gave me the courage to continue taking photos.

    Tony truly is an inspiration. I can't imagine Flickr without him :)"

    "Tony, bekend als de vader van Flickr. Zijn creativiteit vind ik geweldig! Zijn humor is briljant! Ik ben altijd benieuwd wat hij nu weer gaat verzinnen... Of het nu om Tony 1, 2 of 3 gaat... hij wint altijd de originaliteitsprijs! Groetjes uit Nederland! ~Ciel"

    "Other than the fantastic quality Tony's pictures deliver, his humor and cleverness gravitates me towards his stream.You never know what to expect from him, except that he'll surely produce an interesting and amazing shot! :D


    Tony is a infectious ball of creativity who inspires a lot of us here in Flickr. I love how great he is as a contact and how he spreads laughter through his work and comments. :D The world needs a lot of Tony and I'm glad he's here in Flickr. :)



    I consider him the Chuck Norris of Flickr. He defies the odds. ;)"

    "I'm sure that if I created a new account and had to add my contacts all over - Tony would be the first I'd add.

    Tony's photography skills are excellent. See for yourself.

    But there's far more to him than that. It's rare to find someone so giving, so committed to inspiring others. That's why I'm writing this and why he deserves major props. Cheers for being out there, Tony."

    "Tony is just great.
    It's not that much time that I follow his stream, but it has become immediately one of my favourite.
    He is seriously a superb photographer, I really admire his creativity and fresh humor in every photo he takes. And he is one of those brave 365 people!!
    I'm not so regular in posting new photos or commenting due to very few free time, but he never miss to comment my stream, he his very kind.
    Tony is one of those people who makes Flickr interesting."

    "I dont know what to say, like i said im not good with words :(

    so anyway .... All of Tony's work is incredible, what ever the photograph is off, it could be of something pointless and still be like wow.

    However what i would like to see which i have not seen in his streams yet is a hair flip photo :( i dont know why not, he has lovely little specs of hair.

    I would also like to thank him for all the info he has given me on camera's and that, its helped a lot.

    Hope this is okay :)

    iamwithoutshoes - PLEASE USE NEW ACCOUNT says:

    "Sigh.... this is the 3rd testimonial i've written for tony. It seems every time i write them he decides its time for a new account.

    but, i want to refrain from saying the usual, the boring and rather clichey stuff. Yes tony is good, yes he could make a living from this, and yes his pictures inspire me, but its more than that. What tony creates isnt a photograph, its something that captures the imagination, something which makes you think, and in turn, spurs you on to try something yourself. I often find inspiration here, and i often leave tony's photostream amazed at his skill. (sometimes though, amazed at the things he puts himself through, i mean, darth vader suit in public! C'mon!)

    honestly, tony is a great guy, he's so friendly, imaginative and genuine! Keep up the good work!"

    First time I found him was when he was in 2nd version: Tony2. When I looked at his 365 days photos, he seemed like a reaaaaally funny person -- and indeed he is! xD Now in his 3rd account, he's even better!
    He's a great Flickrfriend of mine. :) I wish I could meet him in real life... He always makes me want to improve more in myself and my photography!

    Keep it up, Tony! :D I'm your fannn wooo!"

    "You know that bomb that everyone always goes on about...yeah you do the bomb, c'mon da bomb? ahh now you get it well you see Tony, he is da bomb.

    He is the official father of flickr and that is how we love it here, he has always been incredibly supportive of me and was one of the first to comment on my stream. Anyone who has the pleasure of having Tony keeping up with their stream is always in for the best of the best of comments!

    Tony is lovely and wonderful and funny and is a brilliant photographer too. Fun and serious he does them both, and to be honest I think this third incarnation of Tony will be the biggest thing to hit flickr since it's birth.

    Flickr is Tony and Tony is flickr. Straight up."

    He has supported me throughout the year and finds time for everyone despite having so many contacts to catch up with!
    His photography is full of mind blowing talent, but what i like most about his work is how much fun it is. I always look forward to seeing his photos because they make me smile :D He has taught us that photography really doesnt always have to be so serious!
    Flickr, just isnt Flickr, without Tony!"

    but I have met Tony 2, and I am about to meet Tony 3.
    I have absolutely no doubt that Tony 3 will be completely awesome.

    Tony creates the most gorgeous, well composed and hilarious photos. His ideas are always refreshing and always bring me laughter on those worst days.

    I admire his work, and his generosity to his contacts.

    If you have not added Tony as a contact, I suggest you do it - NOW! and, you wont regret it!

    Promise,

    well that "explore" button?

    That is Tony3.

    He owns you. He is the website.

    Do not go against Tony3 or.....you will disappear. And if you don't, I'll just kick your ass. Either way you lose.

    Tony3 is the place to be.

    PS-My condolences to Tony1 and Tony2. But they kind of sucked. Tony3 is for me!"
