> Atlas Circus

I was always curious to find out what life in one of those circuses that came to town was like. that's why i went after one for a couple of days. from arriving somewhere, the setup, the show in the big top, life of those who make the circus the show we see is hard, nomadic, with lots of work. since the circus no longer brings in a lot of money, the artists also have to help in the day to day chores, take care of the animals, clean the cages, setup the big top. a few hours before the show, everyone retreits to their caravans to relax, get dressed, put on make-up, concentrate and prepare mentally for the show.

Results will show on the next newsletter and be published on the site. See how to participate >>>.

Tan Fanatics


Rain, shine or fog, there's a group of beach-goers in the Paradise Beach.

With bustle and devotion, they prepare their body and health to what come or may. Early risers of all ages profit from iodine, sun rays and suntan oils, to have a smut skin the entire year. Maroon by option. Not even the repairs of the piers dissuade them. [...]
