Lost in Translation 
Pineapple? I love shots that make something strange by focusing on a part. And black and white somehow amplifies strangeness.
I’ve just started resurrecting my old 3 megapixel camera which took wonderful closeups. I need it for spring flowers, but I can see it might be good for other things too.

I hope you’ll manage to resurrect it, Meg, and shoot all the flowers you want.

Juicy, a bit edgy and exotic – creates a very lovely original pattern, Paula! Your choice of music made me think of a beach bar, enjoying the atmosphere and every single droplet of a cool piña colada. 🙂
