Frothy Curls is an image I did several years ago for a French beauty editorial with photographer Felix Lammers and makeup artist Yasmin Heinz . The image had a great sucess with Elle Germany re using it as a beauty story and also Phytoplage bought it to use for a hair campaign .It was one of those late night sessions where more images were not really planned and the photographer asked for one last picture . I took a small curling iron and started to do a big curly hair visual, not really sure what i'd get as the models hair was pretty fine and fluffy in quality ... I brushed the curl out thinking in my head a fairyfloss texture. The photographer's light was perfect to exaggerate the softness and lightness of the curl. It remains one of my favorite curly hair images.Felix Lammers was selected by the publishing company Printkultur to be featured in

charming flowers of mallee (small eucalypt tree)... Flowers are very conspicuous and are initially white or cream-coloured but age to deep pink with the stamens being united into a tube for the lower portion of the flowers. On the top of the photo - developing fruit after stamens fall. It is cultivated in Kings Park, Perth. Common Name: Jingymia mallee Rare and threatened in the wild and uncommon in cultivation. Only several small populations known, on sandy and gravelly soils of inland, southern Western Australia. But I believe it is going to be more popular in the gardens - according to ANPSA, it is probably the most precocious of all the eucalypts (agree!), sometimes flowering when only 15cm tall, reasonably cold-tolerant and seed germinates readily. anpsa.org.au/e-syn.html
