*Leanda's photostream |
I am an English woman living in Athens because love brought me here and love will keep me here. I initially came to Flickr because of my interest in photography, but I realise now it is a great showcase for all creative forms and I have recently rekindled my interest in knitting and crochet! This is my true love. Flickr is my 'sketchbook'... a playground to constantly test out new ideas, formats and treatments... until I find something I like. I really do welcome all your comments!
My Flickr code is: F5/F6l+cf+++g+m++s(bwmca)

"Leanda has such a beautiful eye - which sees from the heart and draws beauty and depth from everything around her. Her sense of colour, tone and shade are just delightful."

"..the woman with the most beautiful name
is the divine guide to beauty & laughter,
taking me on detours where she lets me see
what she sees, I would trust her my hand if I were blind.
This maker of beauty; be it monocrome
timeless or colourfully smiling;
she opens up the world.
Leanda; to me, it sounds like smiling & breathing
as 'Le' is 'smile', - & 'andas' is 'to breathe'..
So glad we drifted into eachother, dear friend!
Never let go of my hand."23rd June, 2008
