‘I have seen a myriad of sites. Yours is perhaps the finest I have seen.’ ‘Wonderful, you’re starting to change my views on photography as an art form.’ ‘You have just inspired me....thank you.’ ‘Wow, this is the way to do it, and you knew :) Now we all know ;)’ ‘I've seen the changes on your website and it's just as I thought it would be - even more professional & very stylish. It's really one of the best looking & working sites I've ever seen, most certainly the best photo-related site I've ever seen.’ ‘Aaahh, Prague..! And, this is a damn fine photography, like the old time greats... Congrats...’ ‘Pure art in photography.’ ‘I really look forward to your work.....This is life...’ ‘Mark, I have fallen in love with your work. It's so diffrent to other photographic work i've seen in the past. You have the most amazing talent with a camara - keep up the good work!!!’ ‘Mark, r3maf.com is simply one of the finest personal photography locations on the net. The bold, original design, playfulness and graphical flair mesh seamlessly with photography that, wouldn't you know it, displays these qualities in abundance! Your photography generates two especially prized effects: impact (a consistent "wow" factor) and a magnetic lasting impression that encourages a desire for much, much more. Few photographers can claim your sharp eye, technical excellence and daring creativity. Even fewer master so extensive a range of styles, subjects and formats. For me the word that best describes your magnificent photography and r3maf.com is: QUALITY!’ ‘R3MAF was the impetus for developing my website!’ ‘Like finding my way home again, where like minded folk can open their minds to appreciate true talent and a different perspective on the world. A line from a song by Faithless comes to mind..."You don't need eyes to see, just vision". I think that sums it up Mark. Great to know where to find you!’ ‘Only the very best can capture the personality and soul of those he photographs. You are one.’ ‘Wow! These are just gorgeous images! They're so poetic!’ ‘Beautiful ideas and beautiful work...’ ‘Perfect moments, beautiful photos, almost like mirrors in time.’ ‘I like your work very much. It has complexity, movement, depth, age, and great compositional quality.’ ‘Mark: you gave me the impetus to develop a web site of my own. I ordered Microsoft FrontPage software, and investigated a web service provider (Earthlink). My first efforts, I know, will be amateurish. My big hang up has been I do not know how to get my page onto the web, but apparently the provider helps hold your hand.....we'll see. I'm a retired engineer, and computer literate, so hopefully, I'll be able to figure this thing out. Thanks for the kind words of encouragement.’ ‘Your images depict their titles to perfection. Excellent composition, textures and tones.’ ‘Mark: I visited your site. They (and your photos) are exquisite.’ ‘Such provocative images.’ ‘Great compositions and I like your use of DOF...the tones are beautiful …I could see these hanging on my wall somewhere!’ ‘Gorgeous!!! These photos are magnificent and I just really love the post-work on them. They look like watercolors on a parchment-type paper - something I'd have in a frame in my hallway.’ ‘This morning I saw your images and opened Photoshop and my clay bag to make my own little images, lol. For now they will be in the MAYBE folder :/ Thanks for the cool ideas and images.’ ‘What beautiful character studies... great photos!’ ‘This is fine looking work. Your Photoshop work is right on the money and gives the viewer a feeling of a hand drawn art.’ ‘Excellent character portraits, Mark! Perfect exposures, wonderful compositions.’ ‘I came across your website, which I notice has a dedication to Senna on it, so I'm assuming that you are the author of this great picture. Do you have a higher resolution of this picture, or any other Senna pictures that you'd be willing to share? I understand if you don't want to release them due to copyright or such, but I must ask, because I love this picture. I checked out the rest of your photography, and I must say that you have a great talent, your work is very good!’ ‘I've said it before, your portraits of people are excellent. Great work!’ ‘Great compositions, love all that space ...& the colours!’ ‘The Golden Beast image - I would print it out and put it on my office wall - and I have access to some pretty large printers, with paper 5 foot wide!!’ ‘I have to say, you couldn't have picked a better subject! Lovely, lovely, lovely. Interesting angle, great colours and oh so mysterious. Would you mind sending a copy to ***** so he can print me out a giant wall sized copy!! ;)’ ‘It's the first time ever that I witness this structure captured with such an interesting and clever POV! Beautiful!’ ‘I can see why you would want to take pictures....There are faces that can tell 1000 different stories, I'm off to look at the rest.’ ‘Beautiful photos!!! Makes me want to take some pictures too.’ ‘Beautiful play of light, on fantastic art in itself...’ ‘These are great character shots and portraits R3MAF!’ ‘Strong tones and contrasts, beautiful crops and compositions... Just like a "zone system photography" and maybe you do so. :)’ ‘Stunning portraits. Love the detail & expressions of their faces.’ ‘Classic! Very nice. Great control of tones and shapes.’ ‘Beautiful shots -- excellent contrasts, composition -- very nice to see it. Your background in art studies shows in your photos.’ ‘The blend of colours and shapes is mesmerizing. Super stuff.’ ‘Great portraits...and the personality of these come through in the pictures...’ ‘I really like your use of color and depth in these images. Makes the mind "wander" about in inner-space.’ ‘These images work like a hammer. Really, really good.’ ‘Oh, this is absolutely beautiful! I so love how the image was colored ...it's magnificent!!!’ ‘Very cool color effects and I just love the way they look like framed paintings.’ ‘Really striking images.’ ‘What an excellent shot! There's so much emotion, there. An image does speak a thousand words!’ ‘Great expressions. Like your style!’ ‘I like the feel of this shot making the eyes and mind work within to get it, at least from my own point of view. I love that this art-form is so open and expressive and allows us to touch passion within our self and connect with our inner self in way that are not necessary to be understood by others. Open mind and heart can allow us to enjoy the newness of an experience through another in a way that we may not ever attempt. We can and do learn from each other. I feel with shots like this being an excellent example of the stimulation sometimes necessary to refresh, by standing back...looking...and feeling through empathic emotion. Thank you for the step back you have brought to me, needed it I did.’ ‘Your photo tells so much about this man... great contrast and lighting...excellent...I would like to view this picture on my wall...’ ‘Excellent. Does "Car and Driver" know you can do this? You should drop them a line.’ ‘Dear Mark, I’m one of the editors for Kodak’s Picture of the Day -- and I’m writing to say CONGRATULATIONS! "Wayne" has been accepted for Picture of the Day. It will appear on htp://www.kodak.com and on the Kodak Times Square Gallery in New York City every few minutes March 5, 2002.’ ‘Hi Mark: First, thanks so much for taking the time to visit my site, and your very kind words. Your site, and urging on, inspired me to do it. Very best regards---if you ever make it to the USA east coast, I will give you the grand tore of the New Jersey shore.’ ‘I don't say this just because she is beautiful. It is the overall quality, and the wonderful way you have captured her -- truly captivating. She, along with the great close-in portraits of the man with the very expressive face, and the fine picture of the smiling young man are others that I found very impressive. The one of the two older people sitting on the bench -she watching you and he sleeping - is also a real winner.’ ‘These are wonderfully gritty portraits, just full of character!’ ‘Well, “Wayne” is up and he looks wonderful. Do you think he will have a chance to see himself looking out at the world? I believe I had previously mentioned I thought it one of your strongest images – a wonderful portrait. It sure looks good up there looking out on New York.’ ‘Hi Mark. It's up and running at www.modernpictorials.com. I have you to thank for giving me the impetus to get off my butt and do it! Thanks!’
