I don't personally know awfulsara other than enjoying her photos here on Flickr, but one thing I do know, she takes awesome photos that are unique in some way or another which makes her one of my favorites on Flickr. Her thoughtful compositions and patience for the right light always convey a special mood. I look forward to her new submissions and I wish the best on her endeavors!

Awfulsara is wonderful. Flickr'rs might call her awful for having the absolutely flooring opertunity of her SE Asia trip, which she took great advantage of. However, that impression can only last until you leave her star photos and look at her more local work. She makes opportunities for herself - nobody could find tha… Read more

Awfulsara is wonderful. Flickr'rs might call her awful for having the absolutely flooring opertunity of her SE Asia trip, which she took great advantage of. However, that impression can only last until you leave her star photos and look at her more local work. She makes opportunities for herself - nobody could find that much beuty by chance, despite her location. She is an awfully gifted photographer.

One day a Flickr friend wrote me and said: "I've noticed you don't count 'awfulsara' as a contact, but did you see her photos? You might like them. You have much in common, both of you are sooo good at 'shooting' people. Take a look over there, and then tell me if I'm wrong." This friend wasn't wrong; she was totall… Read more

You have much in common, both of you are sooo good at 'shooting' people. Take a look over there, and then tell me if I'm wrong." This friend wasn't wrong; she was totally right! Sara's work is amazing. She is one of those folks that everything she touches turns to gold... I don't know if Sara is a natural photogrpaher or if she just really works hard at it (I have a feeling it's both), but her photography is fabulous! She has the artistic skill, and she has the technical skills - and her every photograph reflects both. Each image is a masterpiece. I stand in awe everytime I look at Sara's work, then realize how far I have to go in mine. But that's okay, because I don't mind aspiring to be like her!

"if it wasn't somehow aesthetically unhealthy I would plaster my house with awful sara pics." - my latest comment on her image of an egret in flight.

"if it wasn't somehow aesthetically unhealthy I would plaster my house with awful sara pics." - my latest comment on her image of an egret in flight. AwfulSara is one of the few photographers I've discovered that almost consistently makes my heart race with every new image she posts. She combines technical skill with her very individual vision - dark and innocent, ironic and compassionate, gritty and graceful, humble and proud, real and surreal for fantastic effect. I wish her everything she wants from photography (and life) but not to get too corrupted by fame that she'll leave flickr!

in a crowd of us, she drinks a drink, eats a meal and tells a story. just like us. what i personally feel is that 'awefull' draws the line where most, unconsciously, step upon. i have faith in her abilities, as a person/life stills/story teller. which story she arm waves around the camp fire, is hers and no others. a… Read more

I disagree with Shmoopdot. There is something very wrong and awful about Sara. To quote myself: “I think she’s warped. I really hope she’s warped”. This woman takes the most amazing and technically perfect photographs. Go to her photosite and you’ll see a breathtaking collection of images. What am I talking about? It’… Read more

I disagree with Shmoopdot. There is something very wrong and awful about Sara. To quote myself: “I think she’s warped. I really hope she’s warped”. This woman takes the most amazing and technically perfect photographs. Go to her photosite and you’ll see a breathtaking collection of images. What am I talking about? It’s shagging amazing! Her portraits are just awesome (awfulsome?). She delicately captures her subjects’ personalities and essence with such graceful ease that you start to wonder exactly what kind of sordid deal she’s struck up with Old Nick. Her landscapes are breathtaking, her use of light and colour addictively balanced. Her more abstract shots are poignant and fascinating, and I can’t get enough like the sad, little, gawping git I am. And yet, she’s a complete loon. She wants to play in the sandpit and chase insects. I bet you she runs with scissors. She gapes her maw (to the side). She’s 100%, bona fide, absolutely, completely, awfully My Type of People.

Under one of Sara's groups, the words "lovely and wild" appear. Well, that's exactly how I'd describe her work. The "wild" comes from the subject matter - raw representations of native people and shots of unadulterated spaces...and the "lovely" comes from her eye that sees it all in a most unique fashion. Some very goo… Read more

Some very good work here.
