REVIEWS & COMMENTS

Congratulations on Snapshots One. To be honest, I think it's the best first issue of a haiku mag I've seen.
    MARTIN LUCAS, Editor of Presence

Snapshots One just fell out into my lap this morning - sits there comfortably! Great choice of format, and congratulations on the style and content, all quite special for a first issue... I'm sure people will like it
    DAVID COBB, President of The British Haiku Society

Snapshots is excellent.
    CAROLINE GOURLAY, Editor of Blithe Spirit

Very handsomely produced and contains a very high percentage of good haiku.
    LEE GURGA, Associate Editor of Modern Haiku (USA)

I loved the photo on the cover. A perfect visual haiku. Many very good poems, beautifully presented. It would be a pleasure to be included in this new zine. When one compares how a haiku magazine twenty years ago made its debut and this professional presentation, one can see how far we have come.
    JANE REICHHOLD, Lynx (USA)

Great first issue! Don't stop.
    MAGGIE WEST

Thanks greatly for the first issue of Snapshots - an auspicious beginning. Indeed, I should like to be a part of it...The colour cover was a pleasant surprise, and the size of the journal is most inviting.
    MICHAEL DYLAN WELCH, Editor of Woodnotes/Tundra (USA)

Terrific, both in design/layout and in the general standard of work it contains. It's refreshing to find a poetry magazine edited with such fastidiousness.
    MATTHEW PAUL

A fine haiku magazine.
    GARY HOTHAM

Beautifully produced and an excellent read.
    PETER WERNER

Miniature...but with nothing miniature about the quality of work it contains or the simple, elegant cover.
    MARTIN HOLROYD, Poetry Monthly

Fulfills, or rather surpasses, my highest expectations - elegantly produced, typographically very pleasing and full of interesting and rewarding work...thanks for a great little magazine.
    MAURICE TASNIER

A very impressive production...it deserves to succeed.
    DAVID HOLLIDAY, Editor of Iota

Congratulations on Snapshots One. I very much enjoyed the emphasis on catching the moment in a striking way...a most-promising
    SANFORD GOLDSTEIN

Very impressive...pocket-sized, with atmospheric photos on the cover, clean type and a healthy quantity of poems from each contributor. It does good justice to its poems and the average standard of poetry is high.
    MARTIN LUCAS, Presence

Many thanks for the two copies of Snapshots. They both have a feeling of lightness, in the karumi sense of the word, about them. Excellent covers and illustrations, and a nice size.
    ANNIE BACHINI

The photographs are superb, as are the illustrations.
    ALAN J. SUMMERS

Congratulations on Snapshots One; I really enjoyed the poems published. The drawing of the heron really captured the mood of my poem.
    FRANK WILLIAMS

You know what they say about little packages and good things!
    SHEILA WINDSOR

Thanks for the copy of Snapshots One. I enjoyed reading the magazine and thought the presentation was excellent. A number of non-haiku people have seen it and made similar comments (without prompting by me).
    MATT MORDEN

I enjoyed Snapshots very much!
    RANDY M. BROOKS, Editor & Publisher of Mayfly / Brooks Books (USA)

Issue Two proves that Issue One was no flash in the pan.
    DAVID COBB

The standard of work and of presentation is uniformly excellent again.
    MATTHEW PAUL

Another wonderful edition of Snapshots and it was such a thrill to see my haiku/senryu in there.
    SHEILA WINDSOR

I much appreciate your insistence on good quality stuff.
    KEN JONES

Thank you for kindly sending the two issues of Snapshots. I found much to enjoy in both of them, a rare achievement with haiku magazines at the best of times.
    BRIAN TASKER, Editor of Bare Bones

Most enjoyable.    JOHN McDONALD

Plenty of good stuff to indulge in.
    STEPHEN DULSON

I've found much gold in Snapshots.. and I love your covers which lead the reader in.
    CICELY HILL

If haiku is the Cinderella of literary forms then Snapshots is the golden carriage that will take it to the ball.
    JOHN CAPP

Snapshots has a 'well-established' feel after only three issues. I'm sure it's here to stay.
    DAVID COBB

Gets better and better.
