Stan IS the Man. A finer friend you'll never find. A funnier photographer or more intriguing writer you'd be hard-pressed to meet. A visit from him, or to his photostream always brightens my day. He's a breath of fresh air; genuine, kindhearted, communicative, intelligent and willing to leap to whatever heights -- taking on the dare his bright imagination holds out to him... I've enjoyed our dialogue & Stan's unique photos for years & this past year, with his innovative 365-selfy series, have been so pleased to discover his fanbase growing... He deserves that! I continue to look forward to see his latest projects (still can't wait to see his Raleigh gallery in-person)! Thanks for everything Stan-O -- you're a smile & then some.

He is incredibly gifted with his camera and has a sense of imagination that just leaves me speechless sometimes. Stan is my hero :) I miss him very much and I am glad that I can follow his quirky exploits on flic… Read more

Stan is my hero :) I miss him very much and I am glad that I can follow his quirky exploits on flickr, even 1000 miles away.

Stan occupies a unique niche in the Raleigh flickr group... in addition to his enthusiastic support and admiration for artists everywhere, he's a Fine visual and literary talent, always backed up with fully twinkling guileless mischief. He has a Great talent for fun that walks the line between outright debunking and simply sharing amusing possibilities. Even when he declines to take the big myths too seriously, he gets away clean, since he has no malice in his marrow.

Stan has taken an incrediable leap of faith, closing down a succesful lawnmower repair busines to achieve his dream, running an art gallery. It took him a year to make the transition but with a quaint space in down town Raleigh, he can now fulfill his desires. The art hanging at his gallery is fantastic. He has a … Read more

Stan has taken an incrediable leap of faith, closing down a succesful lawnmower repair busines to achieve his dream, running an art gallery. It took him a year to make the transition but with a quaint space in down town Raleigh, he can now fulfill his desires. The art hanging at his gallery is fantastic. He has a great eye for what works and what doesn't. This translates into a good eye as a photographer.
