Kia Ora
I live in New Zealand
with the birds, and the weather.
I grew from the Manawatu
and now, after half a life away, I've returned
to the river and hills that taught me in the beginning.
I studied literature and linguistics at university;
a diploma in drawing and painting followed.
Now as a photographer, poetry sneaks in through the pixels.
********************
For some time now I've struggled to keep up with flickr...
I try to think of ways to be generous
and also meet my own needs to find more time and energy for making images.
If you happen to have faved my stuff - thank you for the compliment!!
If you're interested in an image or painting please contact me by flickrmail
or email me at
amandakeogh2@gmail.com.
It should go without saying, but please respect copyright on my images.
Looking forward to sharing images and ideas with you :-)

Ici c'est un lieu secret où l'âme glisse parmi les images paisibles, où les rêves prennent forme et se teintent de couleurs merveilleuses. Une nuée d'oiseaux s'évapore comme un mirage, et nous laisse une plume en témoignage de ce miracle. Je garde la plume au creux de mon coeur. Merci, Amanda.
an extraordinary, very remarkable photostream!
Amanda has her own unique and beautiful way of making an image that is entirely hers. It alway has to come from ones heart and Amanda is so focused in this way. Never miss your work...Neil ( wildbird2015 )
I love your highly original approach to photography; obviously influenced by your interest in painting. This is a place to visit if you're tiring of the common point of view.
Amanda's photostream is a delicious journey for all senses. This is a path is leading close to the secrets of the inner and outer worlds...
J'ai découvert les "images" d' Amanda, il y a un moment...Je la suis avec intérêt. Son travail n'est pas définissable. Je l'appelle la petite shaman car ses images me procurent toujours des émotions, des sentiments... Elle allie technique, poésie... elle est pluridisciplinaire. Son regard est unique, artistique!

J'ai découvert les "images" d' Amanda, il y a un moment...Je la suis avec intérêt. Son travail n'est pas définissable. Je l'appelle la petite shaman car ses images me procurent toujours des émotions, des sentiments... Elle allie technique, poésie... elle est pluridisciplinaire. Son regard est unique, artistique! Elle a cette sensibilité que seuls les véritables artistes ont! Amanda est aussi une personne que j'apprécie énormément, de part ses qualités humaines, ses questionnements, son rapport à L'Autre, à la nature. C'est une amie aussi, du moins je la considère comme telle. Discrète et loyale, honnête, vraie... -Always a Moon-

What can i say about birdcloud1? I will say this … artist, photographer, poet, philosopher. She has a keen eye and a nimble mind. She makes beautiful photographs - rich, detailed, playful and profound images that invite a thorough exploration. She is curious, experimenting with textures, light, shadow, movement. Investing time in her photostream rewards us with the feeling of having shared an experience, sometimes filled with joy, sometimes filled with melancholy, always genuine and true. I'm happy to call her 'friend.'
