JR is an inspiration to me as a photographer, encouragement to my mental state and an amazing friend. He takes the time comment to every comment he gets and makes you look forward to leaving them. he is full of kind and encouraging words and provides priceless feedback on my work. I truly value his friendship! When you'd like to get lost in a sea of stunning skies and sunsets, open Jr's galleries, dream awhile;)

Really since I discovered JR's collection through his photos I have been able to see a different world full of vivid colors, extreme close-ups and an impressive sunrises, you are truly an international class photographer.

Thank you JR for this photographic work for the benefit of the beauty of nature at a time when man destroys natural ecosystems

What can I say about the guy who embodies and masterfully captures the island spirit? The journey through his stream is filled with superlatives: the most vibrant sunrises and sunsets, beautifully detailed macros, perfect portraiture. I can't heap enough praise on his shots!

Thanks for bringin' da island back to da boy, JR!!

Once in awhile you come across individuals with just the knack of doing things. JR is no exception to being that. He has the ability to find ordinary every day to day and turn things into wonderful worlds of wonder.

Once in awhile you come across individuals with just the knack of doing things. JR is no exception to being that. He has the ability to find ordinary every day to day and turn things into wonderful worlds of wonder. I am glad to meet people like JR who see the beauty in photography in vivid colors, extreme close-ups, and breath-taking sunrise. I don’t know anyone that will wake up 4:30 am just to catch the sunset. Always, willing to go for the extra mile for the shot. Great shooting JR.

Guess I never wrote a testimonial for my friend, JR. Here goes... I met JR Manuel in March 2007 while in Guam for a funeral and had the opportunity to shoot with him for a couple of hours a few days before returning to Las Vegas. JR is the epitome of a well-rounded photographer. He excels at all aspects of ph… Read more

Guess I never wrote a testimonial for my friend, JR. Here goes... I met JR Manuel in March 2007 while in Guam for a funeral and had the opportunity to shoot with him for a couple of hours a few days before returning to Las Vegas. JR is the epitome of a well-rounded photographer. He excels at all aspects of photography, landscape, macro, action/sports...I would be surprised if there's anything he can't shoot with perfection! He is extremely dedicated to capturing the "perfect shot." He will wait hours until he has what he needs. Have a browse through his photostream, and you'll see that you'd probably want JRmannn doing your next event or find yourself hiring him to work on a project that requires a specific skillset. Hats off to you my friend...you've earned your dues. Brandon T. Perez

JR is not only an amazing photographer, but an amazing person as well. He is a single dad that still manages to get out there and document Guam and his surroundings in a way that brings peace and tranquility with every image to my monitor. I always look forward to JR's images, comments, and e-mails. He is a loyal contr… Read more

JR is not only an amazing photographer, but an amazing person as well. He is a single dad that still manages to get out there and document Guam and his surroundings in a way that brings peace and tranquility with every image to my monitor. I always look forward to JR's images, comments, and e-mails. He is a loyal contributor to Flickr in a uniquely positive way. Without JR and his images, Flickr and it's community would not be the same. Look through his photostream--the journey will surely be worth it. You may even find images that you wish to purchase within his stream--I know I have.
