This is kind of early...

I see what you're saying, but I think this fault lies mostly on the photographer - right? I'm not sure how photography works, especially when modeling and photoshoots are involved, and if said model has any input into what she does, where she does it and how the photos come out in terms of what they 'mean' but this IS Ayu, so... It's to be expected that she'd have a hand in it, heh.

I personally would like the shoot, if this turns out to be true, to reflect her branching out into Asia for the past year. She wouldn't have to do stereotypical things reflecting the countries she's visited but just something that represents them, you know? Or at least embodies them in a way that makes it seem like Ayu is embracing the countries that have embraced her.

Well, Ayu has the photographer there and a display that they probably bring around to view the shots right after they're taken, so I don't think it's the photographer's fault.

I'm pretty sure that's how Ayu works anyway, even with on-locations shoots.

I say let Ayu shoot wherever, and whenever she want's. If you'r not happy with the results... Well then dont buy the calendar. Im just excited to be hearing some new news TBH. Besides the whole peach john thing the Ayu news hasn't been to much lately:( I know she is just off tour, and needs rest... But i just LOVE reading new Ayu news!

I don't get why ayu likes HK so much...since some of the reporters weren't that nice to her...and yet she continues to go back.

that's true

she loves HK probably a bit too much haha :laugh

maybe bcos of the shopping ?

Yeah, no doubt, France would be 100s better! :irked

Orrr maybe she's visiting someone... :lech

haha.. i do agree that the calenders in recent years are pretty much .. f-ed up but i believe ayu just wan to go to a different country to film her calender.. I am sure wants to see more of the world.

And anyway, the calenders being not "AWESUM" is only our opinion and not a fact. So maybe that is what ayu wants?? i guess we must learn how to accept things that we dont like since there is nothing we can do to change anything right?

reporters? eeks~ wad abt the reporters? bad experience?

It is now confirmed according to tethevo from TeamAyu diaries that Ayu is going to Hong Kong and Macau for magazine and calendar photoshoots.

I was hoping she wasn't going overseas again, but eh.

macau too? well she has to shoot some pic in front of the err... ______ gate (i forgot its name XD)

haha possiblities

oh

I know she has been to Hong Kong before but Macau ?

for the casino & food maybe :laugh

then again I don't know by right if she gambles cos Macau has some great casinos hot spots

I think it's basically about Ayumi getting the headlines in whatever place she decides to visit. Headlines -> interest -> profit, basically.

kind of too early? o.0 LOL.
but hope the photoshoots will be nice :D

Nice. HK + Macau are awesome places! But i would love her to do a leslie Kee calendar D:!

Hmm early indeed but then again she is gonna be out in tour during this fall so... Hard to find time I guess. I think its good tough. I think she will get some smashing pics! ^^

If it's true, besides calendar shots, ayu can shots many things...it's so her, new PV maybe, or photobook for her upcoming album
and yeah...please ask Leslie Kee to take those pics !!!

wow...thats sooo soon!

i kinda believe this rumour, but after tomorrow we'll probably find out!
