Flickr is a creative global forum for a plethora of image makers. I have been inspired by the diversity of talent that is available at the flick of a click - please check out my "faves" folder to see what I mean.
Flickerites are also supportive and encouraging and this has been immensely helpful to me as I Flickr when I can.
My flickr screen name, Leannai Lir, comes from ancient Celtic mythology and translates as the Children of Lir, a sad & wonderful tale of 4 children turned into swans by their jealous step-mother whose beautiful singing voices haunted the shores of Lough Derravaragh for 900 years. The methaphors of captivity and escapism is somewhat a bit of black irony in this tragic legend but it is a wonderful tale and has been a favourite of mine since I was a child.

I always find excellent photos when i visit Leannai Lir's photostream. This shows a very keen aesthetic sense and an innate talent. She is a natural photographer; able to see a great photo when they present themselves; her photos of people remind me of Cartier Bresson.When Leannai modifies a photo with sepia or other effect; the result always seems like it should have been in the original photo; she enhances the mood; magnifies the moment; adds just the right amount of spice to give a subtle and rich flavor for the eyes to feast upon. I like her work because it is diverse; yet unified by her amazing powers of empathy for the human condition; she has that rare intuition which we are so fortunate to be witness to.

Leannai Lir is like a swan for sure and her name is as magical as her eye for art and interesting things in this world. You will see in this stream not only her own artistic creations but also wonderful views of other art she collects on all her travel adventures (I'm quiet jealous!) Look around and I'm sure you will enjoy. ( I'm pretty sure she's half elvish so take care not to get enchanted :)))

It's an honor for me to count Leannai Lir as one of my contacts. If Flickr had a favorite contacts list she would be on mine. Lennai's keen photographic eye and eclectic interests are evidenced especially by her "abstract" set and her "people" set. I hope she continues her efforts in candid street photography. We have collaborated on a joint work and I hope to do so again. My appreciation also extends to her for her support and encouragement.
