"The Garden"
And he was walking in the garden
And he was walking in the night
And he was singing a sad love song
And he was praying for his life
And the stars came out around him
He was thinking of his sins
And he's looking at his song-bird
And he's looking at his wings
There, inside the garden
Came another with his lips
Said "won't you come and be my lover ?"
"Let me give you a little kiss"
And he came knelt down before him
And fell upon his knees
"I will give you gold and mountains
If you stay a while with me"
And there was trouble
Taking place
Trouble
Taking place
There, inside the garden
They kissed and the sun rose
And he walked a little further
And he found he was alone
And the wind it gathered round him
He was thinking of his sins
And he's looking for his song-bird
He was looking for his wings
And there was trouble
Taking place
Trouble
Taking place
There was trouble
Taking place
Trouble
Taking place

Hot off the Press- What Digital Camera Magazine Feature
Juicy is happy as she has been featured as a part of an article on Flickr in the March issue of What Digital Camera magazine. She was thrilled when approached about doing an interview for the feature. Now, seeing the results, she is filled with emotions- happiness, amazement, shock and joy (just to name a few). It is still hard for her to believe and can’t wait to get a ‘real’ copy in little hands!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Carolina is a graphic artist and self-confessed 'computer geek' who has one of the most unusual Flickr photostreams, in that all of the photographs are of her. Her stunning looks and often provocative poses has also made it one of the most visited too, with nearly three million views. It isn't an original idea of course, but what elevates Carolina's work is the skill and artistry involved in their creation.
'I love having my photo taken' confesses Carolina, who discovered Flickr through a friend. 'In the beginning I thought it would be fun to post photos of myself wearing my collection of Juicy Couture clothing. After my photos began to get more popular I started pursuing a lifelong dream of modeling. I grew up in a family that was always taking photos and I have always loved being on both sides of the camera'
Carolina studied photography at college, and is an avid consumer of fashion photography. Some of her pictures are self-portraits but most are a collaboration with her partner Allen. 'We work well together,' she continues. 'I come up with most of the ideas, including styling, locations and poses. I also do any Photoshop post processing. Allen is great at directing and shooting.'
Carolina is very prolific. 'I like to post a new photo everyday. It keeps me motivated. My mind is always thinking of new ideas. At weekends we go out to locations I've thought of during the week.'
Carolina and Allen use an Olympus E1 and E500. 'I love the Four-Thirds system and have several lenses,' she enthuses. 'We are also lucky enough to have a studio in our home, with both continuous and flash lighting systems, and a 10ft backdrop which is kept erected all of the time, as if it were furniture. That motivates us for those unplanned shots too.'"

"Etienne Trilogy"
[The Highlands]
[Etienne]
Maybe I'm a witch
Lost in time
Running through the fields
Of Scotland by your side
Kicked out of France
But I still believe
Taken to a land
Far across the sea
Etienne, Etienne
Hear the west wind
Whisper my name
Etienne, Etienne
By the morning
Maybe we'll remember
Who I am
Maybe you're the night
Who saved my life
Maybe we faced
The fire side by side
Here we are again
Under the same sky
As the gypsy crystal
Slowly dies
Etienne, Etienne
Hear the west wind
Whisper my name
Etienne, Etienne
By the morning
Maybe we'll remember
Who I am
I close my eyes
See you again
I know I've held you
But I can't remember
Where or when
Oh Etienne, Etienne
Hear the west wind
Whisper my name
Etienne, Etienne
By the morning
Maybe we'll remember
Who I am

Revealing the best
Solea, the undoubted flickr beauty queen:::
The upwards and downwards angles always offer a new and interesting perspective. I like the silky smoothness of this one, as we move out of the darkness and into the dark, middle and then light greys. The shapes and forms create eye candy for the gents and perhaps a few ladies. However, for me, it is the eye for luminosity that stands apart. Put another way, the eye for the glow of a photo. There is a whole mathematical discussion of this, but at its heart, it is the separation of the b/w contrasts from colour, or in Outdoor Photography's encapsulation of Ansel Adams thoughts, the separation of the ambient from reflected light.

Where The Wild Things Are
Juicy depicts feminine innocence coupled with a sensual allure that can launch a thousand ships..
"...and tamed them with the magic trick of staring into all their yellow eyes without blinking once..."
