I've had several different flickr accounts and on everyone I have always took the time to find Dan and add him as a contact. I am always waiting for his photos to be posted. They are always so beautiful to look at, such great detail within them! He always in a nice enough guy to comment back and reply to message helping others out =] I really do adore his work.
Read lessI have been a big fan for a long time. Dan's images tell stories. They make you keep coming back for more. Not really sure how he does it, but he always makes the simplest subject look so beautiful. His use of colour, DOF, composition and post processing are always perfect. Dan is definitely one of the best in Flickr.

โTo me, photography is an art of observation. It's about finding something interesting in an ordinary place... I've found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.โ ~~Elliott Erwitt. This is one of my favorite quotes about photography and I believe Dan could do just that. The way he sees beauties in ordinary places and the way he presents them to us that make him a wonderful and a very special photographer. There is no one who comes here on his stream, that doesn't walk way with an awe struck feeling for each photo he posts here. I speak for myself and I am sure many of you share the same feelings...I'm so honored to have "met" him here on Flickrland and have the pleasure getting to know him. His talents and creativity are boundless. Each one of his photos tells you a beautiful story that takes you breath away...Love how he titles his images..simple, intimate, touching yet very meaningful and intriguing. The light and colors in each of his images are so magic, divine and enchanting sometimes you wonder if he lives in the same world as we do? :P Always looking forward to his visits as he is always so supportive of his contacts work and always willing to give genuine, encouraging words and helpful advices. Thank you Dan for being such a dear friend and thank you for inspiring me every day! xox

In Durango99 one will find a unique combination of technician and artist. Having been friends with him for over ten years (9 that he knew about) I can say it's not common to find someone with his absolute command and interest in the technical who lets it go and finds the beauty in simplicity. I also love that his "editing" is relegated to Picasa, and thus something someone like me has a chance of achieving with practice and help. Help he's always more than happy to provide. ~ AmazingGraze

This testimonial is so long overdue it is not funny..... Dan AKA Durango99 has got one of the most inspiring streams that I have seen on Flickr, his artistic ability and the ability to make something look so special from something as plain as a leaf or tree is rather remarkable. I can also say that Dan is very generous with his knowledge and has spent many hours with me on Gmail Chat while I ask question after question !! - Dan - I am very proud to call you a true Blue Flickr Mate - Hope one day we get the change to meet and exchange detail in person. Keep inspiring people mate !

Honestly? I was not into macro at all. Flower shots? Mwah, usually they do not do it for me. At least so I thought. Durango99 made me look at it in a totally different manner. Honestly? It were HIS pictures that made me bought a macro lens (he didn't even know, until now). Honestly? I have no clue how he creates his wonderful, unique world. Everything he does shows that behind it is a creative, intelligent, very delicate and joybringing mind. I am really, deep from the heart completely impressed with his work. It really is a joy to wonder through his work and i strongly advice anyone to have a good look at it. It's truly rewarding. Durango99, in short; i'm a fan. Bigtime!

I have him on my contact list and whenever I open up the page of latest pics from the contacts, his pics literally stand out!
