Hmmm ..what to say? .. A dis-placed Jamaican and world traveller.

The world is a beautiful place, with something new and amazing to be seen each day, as well as it can be a dark and foreboding place.

As humbly as I can, I'm placing a few snapshots of the view of the world through my eyes and my lens. I have had the privilage to see so many other views, through so many of your own eyes, and for that I have gained and grown a little bit each day ....

    See for yourself folks; this guy's got the cool in his genes so it's no surprise he managed to hook up with the best looking girl in the school-ground and had the sweetest daughter.
    It's great to have such positive and nice fellows around. I know I should be writing at least something sarcastic, but shit, he's like a cuddly wuddly poo [del]bear[/del] ass."

    "Zickie was supposed to be my mentor for DMU. We never talked nor exchanged an email. And, yet, I feel like his will was done. Somehow, in some way, Zickie will be part of me forever.

    Oh, and it's been almost two years since I commented on his pictures. But, a quick skim shows that they are pretty well done!"

    "Zickie is simply the very epitome of chill. Not only a damn fine designer of structures, but a damn fine photographer of structures too. As he hops across the continent and across continents, Zickie is always quick with the joke and perfect lighthearted comments. If there were more Zickies in this world, we would all be in a better place. Also, he faves my pics when I ask nice."

    "Zickie is like good Jamaican rum smooth and fun. He's got the "gift" we all want in photography- knowing when to press the shutter to capture the essence of an ephemeral reality."

    "Zickie has a great eye for photography and catches everyday life with an artful zest.. I actually sold him my first digital slr and have seen that it went to a good home, as I watch his photos continue to improve and impress.. I'm very glad for that."

    "I don't want to say that Zickie contributed to my descent into drug and alcohol abuse, but he DID once give me a ginger beer and a funny-smelling cigarette. I woke up the next day covered in frosting and with my left big toe missing, and nothing has been the same since. I think he knows voodoo."

    "a guy on here, andertho, said it already so i won't be too repetitive. What i try to capture in the grandeur of nature, my brother manages to capture in the mundane of the everyday life of man..all the little things we pass by without noticing..he makes us look twice..and twice again...my favourite is still the black and white of the pen on the paper with the equation in his disctinctive and illegible handwriting ;)"

    ".Zickie. is about 500% cuter than beebo wallace and I can't even contemplate how much cleverer he is.

    He makes me laugh more often, he takes better photos and his smiles cause the angels to sing...

    To sum up: Zickie is better than beebo in every way."

    "Zikie is one of the finest photographers on Flickr. His work has that rare ability to transcend photography, challenge the entire genre and emerge through fire as art -- art to make you laugh, art to make you cry, but most importantly art to make you think. His particular strength is in photographing people. Another thing about Frank, is that his art is unique, it's not your typical sunset or flower but rather provacative photography to challenge our new digital generation. I most heartilly endorse the work of Zickie."

    "Zickie's life and photographs are inspirational. His undying lust for life makes me wonder what more can I do to help the world. But then I roll over and hit the snooze button and go back to bed.
    Good on ya man to make up for my lack of effort"

    "Zickie has a unique ability to capture beautiful images from the mundane artifacts of our daily lives. He sees things differently than most, I think -- he finds grandeur less in sunsets and mountains and more in parking garages and street corners. The former is easy and it's what most of us do, the latter is hard and it's what Zickie does. Zickie is also a sensitive soul and as good a person as you'll meet online. Enjoy his photostream."
