Kind words from other photographers
Carlos CaicedoChatham, New Jersey, USA
I appreciate your tireless search. Your constant exploration. And I hope people understand that there's something else to see beyond the simple object or the obvious shape.
You see the world with different eyes. I salute you for that.
Tony JohnsonPetaluma, California, USA
I am inspired and in awe! There is no limit to your imagination and creativity, Ken! When I look at your photos I am 5 years old again, opening a gift under the Christmas tree.
How does one take an entire universe and place it into a camera sensor? Watch Ken work. I think your internal lens keeps expanding and what you create is a nourishing meal for the soul.
It takes a long time to discover the secret in certain photos. With patience, imagination and an open heart, all is revealed. Those qualities live in you, my friend!
As I continue to study your fine work, I am increasingly curious about ways to use my camera to open silent doors to dark rooms. In this area, you are a pathfinder, Ken.
As is often the case, your image creates a profound sense of wonder and makes the world more vibrant.
There is a very fine balance between providing enough structure and the right amount of latitude for interpretation in an image. Your work continues to underscore the fact that you have that unique skill, Ken.
Your art definitely has an impact on all of us, pushing us into new ways of thinking and understanding. It is a gift.
This world you created with your finest tool, imagination, is simply enchanting.
You are more than a photographer; you are a leader and a teacher, Ken.
It's always a great source of inspiration to read your thoughts. Thank you for being there. You encourage me a lot.
Susy KamberAllentown, Pennsylvania, USA
All your work is incredible! Each piece has meaning and an interpretation representing the concept. You have a most unique eye and sense of how to do this.
Ken, the way you combine the titles with your photographs, the way you photograph your subject matter, the way I imagine you find it, Amazing!
[Your photography is] super imaginative, open ended, first cuz you find things with a great understanding of how to look and it signals to you a message and it's open ended so that can occur by looking at what you have discovered!
Ken continues to inspire us to realize the box we are supposedly thinking out of isn't there at all...
When I was a little girl I started noticing that I would see things in things… similar to what happens when one looks at cloud formations. Our brains do this, yet your work suggests this and much more. It is highly stylized and comes forth from what you see and you bring thoughts and ideas along. There is a strength of meaning beyond the image but it originates in what you see, in what can be seen. You have highly developed your brain's desire to make another sense. I am thinking a new genre of photography because you're revealing a whole new angle.
LayerOneSödermanland, Sweden
It goes without saying that I feel that you have a great eye and imagination – I have followed you from the first images I saw from you; but I will say that I am at times in awe of what you find and how you see it.
I enjoy how you are able to 'see' the things common to us all (and of limited interest) and enable others to traverse time and space to see it anew with you.
I have come to find much meaning in your images in the past. I also know that you tend to impart much meaning to your images as well. That meaning may be lost on some and a viewer's take may differ from yours but one thing I find fascinating in your images is that they do incite my imagination and give me pause to think - abstractly, philosophically, and technically; and they always make me wonder. :)
I so enjoy the harmony and rhythm that you create in your images through your use of natural and man-made pattern – it is almost musical.
Doris TasarekTrier, Germany
Ken, there must be a kind of magic carpet inside of you that makes you travel on a cloud of fantasy to notice and capture such mysteries – awe-inspiring !!
Your artwork is kind of a perfect synthesis composed of the visual presentation and the meaning you are attributing to it by the choice of your titles. I love it how you let us witness your deep involvement and your thought-process.
Your gallery is and will always be a true canopy of inspiration and food for thoughts.
Witold WiszniewskiWarsaw, Poland
To see things where no one else can see anything. And to think things of importance... Impressive ability, Ken!
There are people [who have] an eye for frames and a surprising imagination. Ken has both!
Iulia HeinleAugsberg, Germany
Heartfelt congratulations for your extraordinary gallery, one of the most inspiring I have seen!
Your postings are always deep and thought-provoking.
I am simply amazed by the diversity of your abstract subjects and by the fantastic way you capture them, Ken.
To transform something as mundane as a dirty fabric into an extraordinary abstract image is truly remarkable and the work of a great alchemist. Splendid work, Ken!
Ognjen DedagicTrieste, Italy
You did it again Ken... You actually constantly produce images/details that have a striking force that is not easy to find elsewhere.
Rita RodnerWittering, UK
I very much admire your photography and your honest, stimulating and insightful comments/descriptions.
Tom DaileyAjijic, Jalisco, Washington, Mexico
There's so much here to like, Ken. The well-composed simplicity, for one thing. And the way each photo encourages the viewer to see familiar objects from a new perspective. Much enjoyed!
Stuart AllenBradford, UK
It is a pleasure to be one of [your] followers Ken. I love your abstract images.
Anders JamesCopenhagen, Denmark
I looked once at this picture... and thought to my self – 'That must be a Ken Lambrecht.' – which often happens. You have your very own unique style, which is relatively rare, actually.
Jaime NisenbaumBerkeley, California, USA
I love how you use your pictures and titles to capture and deepen our human experience.
I so much appreciate you exploring big life themes through your powerful and compelling images.
I love that you continue to use your photography to raise the bigger questions of our lives.
Your images spark interesting discussions.
David P. SennerPrinceton by the Sea, California, USA
Your abstract work is inspiring! The simplicity and directness are moving.
Chris HuddlestonHermiston, Oregon, USA
You have so much thought and ideas about your photos. I admire that.
You always have some very nice mystery to your images and leave just enough hints to figure out what it is.
Thanks Ken, for inspiring me to see the everyday world just a little differently.
Atiul Ehsan RupomDhaka, Bangladesh
Your pictures are beautiful. You have a great eye to bring something from nothing. Brilliant. Love to see your works.
Terry Amstutz/Mobius Faith ImagingAkron, Ohio, USA
Your work is flippin' brilliant!!!!!
Murielle HamiltonSanta Monica, California, USA
It's one of my favorite moments of the day: let's see if I can guess what Ken photographed this time without looking at the tags.
You have this rare ability to look at a bunch of 'junk' and see the one detail in it that really matters and will make a great picture.
Armin GiererSwitzerland
Ken, the juxtaposition of your different pattern portraits in your gallery makes each single one even more striking!
I do enjoy your very sophisticated discussions with your friends almost as much as I keep contemplating your images. Such an intellectual inspiration. THANK you!
JacquemoBosgouet, Normandie, France
Ken, your imagination and creativity never ceases to amaze me. Every time I see one of your abstracts I immediately know it is yours. You are so creative. Your insights into the abstract around us all is so very impressive.
Ken, you have such a unique eye. I understand your mind when I read the title, then I understand 'only Ken' sees things in this way... and I love it. You are really brave to expose your true self by exposing your abstracts that frankly I think not as many people appreciate them as should.
I look at your image, I check the title, and somehow the world glues into something that has meaning. You have an eye like no other on 500px.
Michael TaylorLondon, United Kingdom
Ken, your eye for detail and camerawork leave me speechless – amazing work…!!!
Your ability to put words to a simple image is testimony to your understanding of life today and your photographic prowess, Ken - I never tire of seeing what you manage to present to the world...!!!
Franck PigacheAngers, France
So much platitude on some profiles that yours is a breath of fresh air and a real source of inspiration. A sharp look at what surrounds us and the art of isolating even the smallest details into beautiful and detailed compositions. An art of vision and a poetics of the world and objects.
Igor PilawskiReutte, Tirol, Austria
You've got an eye for pattern and subtle stuff. Interesting portfolio!
ze toZaragoza, España

Lucja WanatowiczKoszalin, Poland
I like the way you think in photography very much and your works very much, Ken.
Frank KingCalgary, Canada
I never tire of your brilliant exploration of patterns, Ken.
You have the BEST vision for seeing photo possibilities.
[Your photographs] are a tribute to subtlety. They are a tribute to exquisite vision, to see artistry in things the rest of us barely notice.
Christian MeermannGladbeck, Germany
Such an outstanding portfolio, Ken.
You have got a fantastic eye for patterns and textures.
You are the great grandmaster of patterns and abstraction.
Viviana SaavedraWest Palm Beach, Florida, USA
Your photography is amazing. I have enjoyed every one of the images. I want to learn to see the world the way you see it.
Your photos are a good 'excuse' to stop my activities and observe, and let the image express itself.
Bruce CarterDenmark, Western Australia, Australia
You're an inspiring abstract minimalist.
