A Natural Talent, an Accomplished Tailor. Sure, she has some pretty incredibly beautiful material to work with, and who would not envy her for that? But, who also could fail to agree that this artist has a natural eye, a genuine talent, and an even keener passion, for capturing and sharing this beauty, and for understanding that there is so much more to the finished garmet than the cloth alone!

Ariel first took some pictures of a building for me, I remember as it was building shaped, this was a long time ago. Since then I have seen some brilliant pictures on her photostream, and I saw a picture of a stream on her photo stream and I saw a brillaint picture of a stream, and a brilliant picture of steam near a s… Read more

Ariel first took some pictures of a building for me, I remember as it was building shaped, this was a long time ago. Since then I have seen some brilliant pictures on her photostream, and I saw a picture of a stream on her photo stream and I saw a brillaint picture of a stream, and a brilliant picture of steam near a stream. STOP !!!! Amazing eye for details and also compositionally superb. She's also pretty funny and great for a laugh.

I first stumbled across Adrienne or *Ariel* as so many people know her, back in April 2005, fairly soon after both of us had joined Flickr. Not the kind of stumble where you hurt your toe; more like falling into a comfortable sofa. I immediately was drawn to her style and above all, the way she composes her images. … Read more

I first stumbled across Adrienne or *Ariel* as so many people know her, back in April 2005, fairly soon after both of us had joined Flickr. Not the kind of stumble where you hurt your toe; more like falling into a comfortable sofa. I immediately was drawn to her style and above all, the way she composes her images. Adrienne has a way of picking the right angle and the right crop to make the most out of a given situation. Some of her images often seem straightforward at first glance, but after a few moments you realise how much of her art has gone into creating the picture. Often perfectly framed and capturing not only the subject, but the feel of the scene. There has always been a rich diversity of subject matter in Adrienne’s work, together with a warmth and personal touch that I think is so important. I look forward to the many pictures she has yet to create and inspire us all with.

I came across *Ariel* in the Switzerland Group and quickly realised that she viewed life and photography quite similarly to myself, yet also refreshingly different. Her photos capture the true life of Switzerland without being schmaltzy; revealing her family, those that she cares for at work, the environment and , of c… Read more

I came across *Ariel* in the Switzerland Group and quickly realised that she viewed life and photography quite similarly to myself, yet also refreshingly different. Her photos capture the true life of Switzerland without being schmaltzy; revealing her family, those that she cares for at work, the environment and , of course, the landscape with a personal touch that is truly herself. She's one of my favourite contacts, injecting humour into the addiction of Flickr. Did I mention her photos are good too?

*Ariel* makes classic photography with very strong and striking experiments in between! Its incredible how she sees everything...on the ground.....in nature......in faces. Seeing her work gives me peace and fulfillment, and it makes me see a person who is in equelibrium with the world around her. Her fine humour and … Read more

*Ariel* makes classic photography with very strong and striking experiments in between! Its incredible how she sees everything...on the ground.....in nature......in faces. Seeing her work gives me peace and fulfillment, and it makes me see a person who is in equelibrium with the world around her. Her fine humour and her ability to be a real mate makes it all even better for me:-)
