The Juice is flowing in…

Submissions for the much anticipated “Juice” slide night are in and as expected the content of the images is as diverse as the presenters themselves.

Amongst the images currently on the Juice picture desk are Jack Tran’s portraits of Agent Orange victims, which capture the faces of a human tragedy.

In stark contrast, Gemma-Rose Turnbull’s essay “Show Us Ya Tits” is a witty and intimate portrayal of women’s relationship with their breasts.

Giulio Saggin and Seanna Cronin have wildlife covered on both land and at sea with some beautiful portrait work by Guilo and underwater photography from Seanna, while Katrin Koenning’s series on family is an unique series of pictures that reveals the grace of everyday family life.

While some late submissions are still on their way, “Juice” is shaping up to be extraordinary evening featuring fascinating images and rare insights provided by some of  Queensland’s best photojournalists.

A sample of images from the night will be posted in the coming days so pop back for a sneak preview soon.

• On the agenda for Juice session 3 will be planning and marketing for the “Juice” slide night happening on April 23 at Gold Coast QCA.
• The format of our currently as yet undesigned webpage will be hotly debated  as will our registration as an incorporated association be under the magnifying glass.
• As always we will be thinking big for the future of the PPC and looking for input from all interested parties.
