I'm constantly blown away with her creativity in her gorgeous self portraits! You can seriously get lost looking through her stream! Each and every image has a story behind it and something spectacular about it! She is a total sweetheart, down to earth and is great at giving advise in photography. I'm sooo very happy that I have found her here. She make's a Flickr a wonderful place and it would not be the same without her! Xooo

Ohh Anna Banana! Im so honored to be related to you. You are such an inspiration to me as a photographer and as a person. I am in AWE of your work. I find it odd that we are both artists...and we never knew each other until several years ago. I also wish that i had received the abundance of talent that seems to come so… Read more

Ohh Anna Banana! Im so honored to be related to you. You are such an inspiration to me as a photographer and as a person. I am in AWE of your work. I find it odd that we are both artists...and we never knew each other until several years ago. I also wish that i had received the abundance of talent that seems to come so easily to you. I would recommend Anna to ANYBODY looking for a photographer for any reason. She is SO amazing. Seriously...if only i could get into her crazy head and pluck out a bit of knowledge, just so i could be a fraction as good as her, i would!

Anna Gay is an inspiration. Not only is she a truely amazing photographer, but a truely amazing person. Her self portraits are more than just photos of a person...each one shares a little piece of her. You can look at her photostream and feel a part of her life in a way, its as if you are on a journey with her through … Read more

Anna Gay is an inspiration. Not only is she a truely amazing photographer, but a truely amazing person. Her self portraits are more than just photos of a person...each one shares a little piece of her. You can look at her photostream and feel a part of her life in a way, its as if you are on a journey with her through this crazy world. Anna has the ability to capture soul, where other people just capture images. She is my personal muse, a true modern day pixie...and a Southern lady to boot!

Anna's photostream is simply amazing. I would like to say it is inspiring but honestly it isn't. She is so far ahead of me in every way I feel more lost in amazement by her talent than inspired!

Anna's photostream is simply amazing. I would like to say it is inspiring but honestly it isn't. She is so far ahead of me in every way I feel more lost in amazement by her talent than inspired! Everything about her photos is incredible. Starting with her immaculate make-up, her wardrobe, impeccable locations or background to the final processing. Just about every final image is a masterpiece. It's a true joy to be a viewer of her stream. I said I didn't find Anna's work inspiring because it seems so out of reach of my own skills, but I should say Anna herself is very encouraging and inspiring. A truly beautiful artist and person.

I tend to think of her as the flickr queen! She may not get as many comments as she truly deserves but she definitely has inspired (and continues to inspire) so many people!

Anna is an amazing photographer, which is evident in her stream, but she is also one absolutely stunning and funny person.

Anna is an amazing photographer, which is evident in her stream, but she is also one absolutely stunning and funny person. Through her work I have, on numerous times, found inspiration, strength, and hope. In my darkest hours Anna's stream is where I go. Constant energy and creativity flow through her into her work and its just makes people darn happy. I am so blessed to have known Anna and become friends with her via flickr. She's a free soul with lots of love. Plus she's crazy amazing at photography :)

I've wanted to write a testimonial about Anna for some time now but I never felt my words would do her justice. I caught her sometime after midway in her 365 project and was instantly blown away.

I've wanted to write a testimonial about Anna for some time now but I never felt my words would do her justice. I caught her sometime after midway in her 365 project and was instantly blown away. She was preparing for her journey to head into the military. Since those few short months I've watched her just completely blossom. While I'm sure she didn't expect the road she's on now, I'm selfishly glad I get to look at her work every day still ;) She's a master and an inspiration. I constantly show other people her work and am always surprised by her words and images. I'm so grateful for my Flickr friend and can't wait to see what she comes up with in the future. Thanks for everything Anna =)

Anna ... Anna to me is the very intersection of creativity, introspection, skill and bravery. No, not the intersection, that does not do justice to the physics of what happens when these elements meet; the real world explosion each of us witness, have witnessed, as Anna has introduced us to who she is and what she int… Read more

Anna ... Anna to me is the very intersection of creativity, introspection, skill and bravery. No, not the intersection, that does not do justice to the physics of what happens when these elements meet; the real world explosion each of us witness, have witnessed, as Anna has introduced us to who she is and what she intends to be. Anna's primary project on flickr -- she may not like that I call it a 365, because she is stopping in order to serve her country in the military -- shows in exquisite detail a woman's life in flux. But, Anna does not approach her photography or her life passively, taking what comes at her ... No, Anna has shown us graphically and wonderfully how to take control, how to make a difference for yourself, how to empower yourself, how to ... how to be and be happy and not settle for anything less. And, she does this, quite simply, by showing us who she is, each day, through wonderfully creative pictures; playful, sad, serious, angry, fantastical. She is a master at understanding her settings and how to interact, whether she is in a room, sitting on a tree, or on the porch of an old ramshackle shack. Anna told me a number of months ago that I was her new friend. I sorta thought she was joking. I am really glad she was not. Check out her stream. You'll learn about a wonderful woman. And, you enjoy yourself immensely while doing so.

Here I am telling Anna how amazing she is, and i realize i should share it with all of Flickr too :) So here's my testimonial...... You know how you click through photos and one just jumps out at you and screams "Stop!!! Look at my Beauty!!!!!!" ?? That's How i feel about Anna's work. Not only is she a beautiful perso… Read more

Anna is one of the coolest, sweetest, funniest and funnest ladies I have ever had the pleasure of meeting! She is honest, real, adorable, smart, elegant and creative. I have adored her photos from the first moment I saw them. I look forward to what she uploads every day, I love to see the many faces/moods of Anna Gay. If you think she is cool on flickr, just wait until you meet her in real life. It does not even compare to how amazing she truly is. Anna, thank you for your friendship! I am glad we share such a small world. Much love to you.

If you don't already have Anna as a contact, you are really missing out. Her talent and creativity are tremendous. Her skill and execution are top notch.

One fine day on flickr I came across some beautiful purple bottles www.flickr.com/ph... was the start of digging around in Anna's photostream.

One fine day on flickr I came across some beautiful purple bottles www.flickr.com/ph... was the start of digging around in Anna's photostream. I love her urban decay, the nolan house & her SP, which is not my thing but Anna has a way of pulling them off with flair & style that I have found myself with mouth hanging open & gasping at her incredible talent & beauty.She knows how to do things in Photoshop that I will not learn in 100years. She loves color in her life & her personality just sparkles through her SP & photography. She has a beautiful spirit & I am so glad to have met her & hopefully a bit of her talent will rub off on me :-) I know you will enjoy her stream just as much as I have. Thanks Anna.
