'The photograph isolates and perpetuates a moment of time: an important and revealing moment, or an unimportant and meaningless one, depending upon the photographer's understanding of his subject and mastery of his process.' -Edward Weston

I am an admirer of individuals like you who have the art and ability to capture photos that are more than a picture but pull the viewer to feel and see an image that has a meaning to them.

I am an admirer of individuals like you who have the art and ability to capture photos that are more than a picture but pull the viewer to feel and see an image that has a meaning to them. That is what I believe art is whatever medium the creator uses: paints, sewing, pottery, photography...anything creatively produced for the pleasure of doing it. Sharing one's art is even more special and to share it freely is important to people who can not afford to experience art forms. I say 'thank you' because your photos are beautiful and my husband, Pete, has always held a special fascination of Easter Island. We are not well off financially so it will be important and special to him to see your photographs. Best wishes of health and many more travels that enrich other people. Mrs. Arlene V.

Este gran artista pinta sus obras con la luz, ... pero, con esa luz que acaricia el entorno que le rodea cómo si fuese un gran lienzo metafísico, al que da eternidad con sus cámara.

Este gran artista pinta sus obras con la luz, ... pero, con esa luz que acaricia el entorno que le rodea cómo si fuese un gran lienzo metafísico, al que da eternidad con sus cámara. " Escribe con luz, narra con luz y habla con luz, para mostrarnos esos " instantes " que inmortalizó con su ojo de cristal... Y en este bello arte, recorriendo los territorios que son de todos y de nadie a la vez, utiliza con sutileza y maestría los fundamentos del Arte fotográfico : la composición, el ritmo y la calidad precisa para conquistar el concepto de arte en su obra. Visitar y ver sus fotografías, es viaje a ese misterioso territorio de la creación que eterniza la belleza. No nos conocemos fisicamente, pero me gustaría nadar en el mismo mar simbólico de su buen hacer, para navegar en su arte y remar en la espuma de su sabiduría creativa. Saludos con admiración por la calidad de sus fotos !!! ANTONIO

Miguel: Un chileno que me hace sentir orgulloso, porque ha mostrado a todo el mundo lo bello que es este "largo y angosto" país, especialmente a través de su serie de fotografías sobre Isla de Pascua, "el ombligo del mundo", la cual muchas veces en el continente no valoramos como debería ser, pero Miguel, con su enorme talento, exporta al mundo las mejores imágenes de la isla, para el deleite de todos sus contactos de Flickr. Me gusta mucho que tu inspiración este dada por estos elementos. Te deseo que cada día vayas creciendo más y más, y continues con tu afición por la fotografía, para que podamos continuar observando tu trabajo, y Chile siga siendo conocido en el mundo por sus bellezas, y no por otras cosas que no son tan relevantes. Muchos saludos, amigo mío. Seba

Miguel is a warm and generous person, both with his time and kind words. A wonderful photographer who creates beautiful compositions, and gives thought to his subject before pressing the shutter. Not just good with any one type of composition, Miguel is good with all his subjects and deserves the praise his flickr friends bestow on him. A very busy person can still spare the time to pass on enthusiastic and encouraging comments, as Miguel always shows to others. I wish Miguel well in all he does & my best regards, always!
