John Tulip do not leave TL or I chop off your head

Yes Treklens this is me, your'e very Vandana2923!
dressed on a party as a warrior with sward and all last year vacation in India and with self timer I made this photo.

Now and than I talk to Constantinous, Orkhan
Lucbus and Michele line also with John Tulip via Skype&phone .. John is a little tired lately and a few times he told me to stop with Treklens.

Well , you might say, thats every ones personal discisson and I would agree but to me John is a very important factor. Like Lucbus later also.

We spent time in Totonto , we talked about many issues .. Luc John and me, I am from another world called India great guys! Dont go Johnny!

Vandana, there is an old Dutch proverb that says:
We never consume the soup with the same temperature like it is poured.
I think John has the same as Lucbus, bit much on his head. And he is thew kind of man NEVER to let his real friends down! So listen to Uncle Rob: Relax!

Your photo, OH MY GOD I felt out of my chair!
THAT is YOU??? Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Girl you are a various talented characther!
Hug and bye
Rob

Hi Vandana ,, looking good.
I like it. You looks very handsome.
I hope John will stay.
Best Regards.

Is that really you Vandana??!!!

John, I would listen very hard to what our good friend is saying because from the looks of it I wouldn't want to mess with her!!!

Great humourous photo! (^_^)

I really hope it's just 1st of April's fault ...

LOL!
Great self (if that's really you), good cover up make up ;-)

Yes, Vandana is right, don't leave us, you bring joy, fun and inspiration to many of us here.

Nice and humorous photo.
All the best for every one, especially John, Vandana and Constantinos.

Tom

Haha! You make a fantastic warrior - scary!

Cool shot ...but also a heartfelt message and I absolutely agree with you. Your friends at TL often provide support and inspiration to the rest of us also, and it would be very sad to see John Tulip leave.

Rew

And YES I will come and HELP HER JOHN!! So you better be scared of us girls with swords and guns! HAHAHA! We need you.....We will hunt you down for the rest of your life if you leave...so now that you are very scared, you go ahead and shoot some more pics!
HAHAHA!...........then post.

Nice shot Vandana! Very scary!! HAHAHA!

Beautiful self-portrait. Love your new makeup :-).
But don't worry about John, we all need to slow down a bit.

Hi Vandana,
Wow great image! You look so fierce here, I wouldn't want to mess with you!!! LOL
I too hope that John doesn't leave, he has so many lovely images and great comments and ideas.
TFS Cheers Tina :-)

HI Vandana,
I can barely see from the tears of laughter!!! John if you are reading this...RUN!!! But you can't hide! Remember the advice you give to the rest of us when we say we are thinking of quitting...take a break, you will find you miss it and be back!!!

Great image here Vandana, colorful, threatening, sharp, threatening, and well composed, oh did I mention...threatening?
(^-^)!!! Thanks for the good chuckle too!
Fran

Hi Vandana.
Great portrait.
I thought that the carnival was over.
But this are a other party.

Great and fine.
Beautifull lady at the party!!
Frans

Sounds very frightened, Vandana. How a lovely girl, like you can change.!
I also better stay here too.

Hi Vandana,
I believe that today is what we call APRIL FOUL, at least in Canada and USA! Right Vandana! Should we believe that this is you? Then we will post it within the Self-Portrait Theme. <:-) evil smile

Great capture and POV of the Lady Warrior. Excellent sharpness of details and colors.
This lady been you or not, I believe that JohnT is better to start shacking and think twice before even just thinking of leaving TL. I wouldn't mess with the Lady!

Very well done GF, TFS
Warm greetings
Pierre

Hello Vandana,
although I find the disguise superb, isnt upset, I prefer you with the naturalness. The colors are hot and heats the rather neutral background but it is what was necessary for this type of photograph. As always, they is clear, luminous.

It would be very sad for us if John left, it learns to us so much and especially its humour, its joy in life and its "large heart", please don't leave Mr JT. It had said to me that it was tired but not at the point to start from TL. That it takes retreat, of agreement but cowards not all. Thank you to have informed to us. With soon
Cheers
Corinne

Well Vandana I must admit I prefer the real you. A bright and colourful image with a good message of frienship in the notes. I think we all need a break at some stage, I know myself I have taken a couple of lots of timeout. TFS,
David

Many thanks for your comment on ‘Estuary Reflections II’

And the whole time I thought you were a very pretty girl. But you make a very scary looking pirate. i'm sure John will stay it won't be the same without him. And if you have to scare him a bit then so be it.

Hello Vandana

This is a nice and funny picture but I prefer you as a woman. I don't think John is going to quit TrekLens, he is our ambassador. He is our contact between many peoples and countries.
Thanks for sharing this picture and good luck with your new house.

Regards, Sylvain

Interesting capture...I see a liitle crown at the corner...so it must be a play:)
Happy Aapril Fools Week!
David

Hello Vandana,
This is so original and very colorful! Did I miss something here? Is John talking about leaving, it doesn't sound like it to me yesterday when I spoke to him... Oh, I see, this was posted on April, 1rst, this must be a joke then :-) Lovely picture! Thanks,
Claudine

Hi Vandana,

I seriously hope that John thinks twice his move, because you look like you mean business!!lol!!! Nice thought and shot.

Hi Vandana,
look at you all dressed up and you mean business. Super shot, full of colors and humour.
You sound convincing to me, lets hope it works on John.
Well done.
Sky

Hi Vandana,

I assume your contacting the makers of Pirates of the Carribian for a part in the next film :) Nice shot with a good blast of colour.

Good work

John

Hi Vandana!
You are looking very dangerous.Very good portrait.
Cheers.
Cezar

Hi Vandana,

I'm glad you posted this picture on the 1st of April! So I don't have to take this serious! ;)

OK, now get dressed decently, as shown in this picture. I can't stand buccaneers particular female ones. And as far as I'm concerned, do what is needed fort JohnT! ;)

hello Vandana
i see wonderful humour and portrait photo.
i like your camouflage and pose. composition, point of view, colours, details and framing are great
thanks for sharing
regards
izler

A good picture and note for April 1st Vandana, you look a bit scary in your pirate make-up . I think John will quickly agree to your demands though; without a fight I'm sure.
I think you are right about a man and his friends, and clearly, both you and John have many friends on TL.
Best wishes
Bill

Hallo Vandana
Beautifull portrait. Verry funny.
Gr Jos


p.coming

Vandana, as Rob is saying relax and let the man relax - don't you know how addictive TL is?? Not an easy habit to quit.
I wonder does Rob know what happens if he kisses and hugs you like this - you must have had a terrible job cleaning all that afterwards. You are not at all recognisable - well maybe your half smile?
Great job, great photo and we all will keep an eye on John from now on.
Bye

Hi Vandana,
I am a few days off- but add me to the list of tl'ers that won't let it happen to Sir John. A rest maybe for a few days or weeks- but we'll track him down if longer. (lol). NICE POSTING BY THE WAY-- Very funny. TFS Julie

Shades of Pirates of the Carribean, all painted and a very serious swashbuckling pose!
I think John is quite hooked on TL, so there is no chance he'll quit. Take a break perhaps (I've been known to take a little time off myself also) but quit: NEVER!
Cheers

Good photo, a little scary though!! It's not nice to fool old Don on April fools day!! I admit I was taken in & even wrote John T telling him to slow down instead of quitting! My wife clued me in, she goes through all my favorites post every day, she really enjoys them & probably knows more about all of you than I. Anyway good costume & photo, points but no hug for fooling me :} Don
