Maureen's page holds so many stories of every color, kind , shape and sort. Visiting her page for the first time , I found myself immediately swept away!

This kindness has given me confidence to continue capturing my own stories!

Maureen pleases my eyes. Through the Eyes So through the eyes love attains the heart: for the eyes are the scouts of the heart, and the eyes go reconnoitering for what it would please the heart to possess. And when they are in full accord and firm, all three, in the one resolve, at that time, perfect love … Read more

Maureen pleases my eyes. Through the Eyes So through the eyes love attains the heart: for the eyes are the scouts of the heart, and the eyes go reconnoitering for what it would please the heart to possess. And when they are in full accord and firm, all three, in the one resolve, at that time, perfect love is born from what the eyes have made welcome to the heart not otherwise can love either be born or have commencement than by this birth and commencement moved by inclination. By the grace and by command of these three, and from their pleasure, Love is born, who its fair hope goes comforting her friends. For as all true lovers know, Love is perfect kindness which is born—there is no doubt— from the heart and eyes. The eyes make it blossom; the heart matures it: Love, is the fruit of their very seed. Guiraut De Borneilh (ca 1138-1200?)

I always look forward to seeing Maureen's latest upload and am never disappointed - I admire her range of subjects and techniques - always looking to learn and thereby providing inspiration for others. One of her greatest abilities is to show the Western United States and Southern California in particular in such an individual and unusual way. I love the desert shots especially.

You helped me see that flickr is a bit more than just uploading photos, but a place to learn, share and grow and ask questions.

Maureen Bond has an awesome eye for shooting those things in life that pass most by. She is a master at composition, light, color and processing. I admire her skills and have learned so much from her choices of subjects in her photostream. Maureen is very generous with her comments and through these comments she has shown things to me in my own photos that perhaps I didn't even see when choosing a particular shot. She is such an inspiration to me and I value her opinion greatly. Maureen is a true jewel in our Flickr neighborhood!

Maureen was one of my first Flickr contacts, I remember being so blown away by her wonderful talent of taking the ordinary and making it extraordinary! Her rusty, crusty abandoned treasures and storytelling style make her photostream just so fantastic to view and absorb.. Some of my favorites include her gorgeous classic car collection, her photo journalistic shots of Ghost towns, and of course the majestic Napa Valley wine country views. Please take the time to look through her fabulous photostream, she is also a sweet and giving contact who gives the best personal comments, I know she is a real GEM just like her photos : )

I really enjoy viewing Maureen's photostream. She gravitates towards subjects that I don't normally shoot - like classic cars - but that's one of the reasons I enjoy her work so much.

I am glad to have Maureen as my Flickr friend.
