Besides the fact that he's British and a great photographer, what else can I say??? Seriously, Ollie is a great friend you'd have in Flickr. Always there to guide you if you care to ask. He can teach you tricks lol !! A man with a big heart (though it nearly failed him once, but he promised that won't happen again). I don't have to talk much about his photography skills for you can view them everyday - am his ardent fan. Way to go and don't you ever change - just love the way you are, my dear..... All the best, Ollie. Ruth

Ollie has the rare virtue of being able to "see" a photograph where most would just walk past the subject..... His landscape photos are stunning. His flower photos are like rainbows of color.....

It was such a relief when Ollie_57 returned after suffering a cardiac arrest. When I first heard this news, I was shocked and realised how much I enjoyed seeing Ollie's photographs. Most every day, Ollie posts a new photo and it is a treat to see. His range of subject material is vast and every photo gives us a view into how he sees his world. We are all fortunate to have Ollie at Flickr. Stay healthy, my friend and continue to share your lovely photos with us.

Photography is about the sharing of daily life. Photographer is about the attitude of life. "Ollie_57" is a very generous photographer, has a positive attitude towards photography and to his contacts ( I am so lucky to be on the list). The IDEA of Ollie's photostream is simple: the simplicity in beauty. You can discover the natural beauty inside the photos, a leisure for you to image the scenery IS in front of you, that's why for everytime I see Ollie's photo, it's like a magic that Ollie is telling me a story. Ollie is not fixed to one style, because he has an open mind and true heart in life to explore the details, and share the joy with the people around the world. I am so impressed by this, sometimes, photography is not all about "beauty" or "nature", it should be about life, no matter you are in the countryside or big city, "there are always something out there". That's Ollie, coloring with energy, exploring with enthusiasm, sharing with passion. You are one of the greatest photograhers on FLICKR.
