Jakes_World's photostream
|
I'd just like to use this space to say how I thoroughly dislike the new profile page foisted on us by the Flickrbook® from Yahoo!® designers.
The inclusion of My Favorites in the profile is another ridiculous idea. Surely it makes more sense that a profile should refer principally to that person's photos, and not photos scattered around Flickrbook® from Yahoo!®?
Just a dog on the InterWebNets.. yep, that's me
with toy cams, that is.

We all need to use more FILM, Eh?
love to hear from you, feel free to flickr-mail me anytime!
Quote of the Day: Hey, hey, hey — don't be mean. No need to be mean. 'Cause, remember: no matter where you go... [pause] there you are.
If you know the quote, we WILL be friends

Johnny Puts Out Fires says:
""She has that eye for the great shot, her photos show just how much she enjoys her friends..
Jakes is a one of a kind person filled with humor and passion and she is easy on the eyes as well. Put a check mark in the awesome column next to the young ladies name!"9th December, 2011

Mars Observer (back and catching up) says:
"'Jakes World' For anyone who knows Jakes, these two words are synonymous with the words 'What If'
What if... you were to take elements of the 2001 cult classic movie 'Donnie Darko' and combine them with 'Elmo's Word', with Elmo being played by Donnie Darko actor Jake Gyllenhaal?
This is the no-less-than-ambitious, thought provoking, moral and philosophical question raised by Jakes, through her compelling and sometimes controversial photostream 'Jakes World'. Unquestionably the most important work of this era!"3rd November, 2011

KMaiden313 says:
"I'm soooo glad that we finally met!! You are an amazing woman who is a ton of fun! I love all of your crazy cameras and you do beautiful work with them! I can't wait to see what you got in Philly!! Hopefully we'll be able to get together again soon! :)

Crick3 says:
""Better late, than a dead rabbit." That was the instruction manual for Carla's first camera/lunchbox. Jakey has shown me that it's harder than it looks when it comes to the world of LoMo photography. Any buffoon can snap a 100 shots with a P+S and get lucky, and maybe even end up with a decent image, but it takes someone like my pal here, to reverse the process. Please do yourself a favor and visit the land of this lovely lady and friend. One of these days, my dog is gonna sniff your dog's, butt."

"Jakes_World is one hard ass bitch. Given the choice between fucking with a dozen angry drunken midgets or Jakesy, I'd totally take on the midgets. That is high fucking praise people.
I have no proof or knowledge of this, but I'll bet she gives great head too."11th May, 2011

Wildskud. back in business says:
"Jakes may not know this. But (s)he's one of my main reasons for logging on to this place every day.
Jakes is a funny soul and very few people notice this while looking at her photos. I bet she doesn't even notice herself.
Actually I think that I might be the only one who noticest this.
Jakes' photos are stuffed with little details that make me laugh inside. When there's very little sunshine in my life, I only have to sift through Jakes' photostream. Then I'm as good as new.
But does that make her a good photographer? (Which apparently is a very important thing to be)
Some might say no and some might say yes.
Since I've allready forgotten what the question was, I join the "yes-side"."10th May, 2011

"Jake's World is a misnomer. More like Jake's Galaxy, or Jake's Universe. A trip through her photostream is an LSD trip through the 3 spacial dimensions, a punch in the face with time, and a creamy brûlée flambée dessert of the additional 5 hypothetical quantum dimensions. Holga? Check. Dogs? Double check. Mr. Jakes World? I'm pretty sure that dude's a troll, but triple check.
This is her world so strap in tight, bitches."2nd May, 2010

"If I had to pick one flickrite to have some major fiesta with, it would be imægo killed ConvulsoClick!! But If I could have two flickrite's JW would be right there. Nobody, save imægo killed ConvulsoClick!!, on flickr combines so sweetly an enormous heart with a contagious, joyful lust.....
for life.
Also, she has a really cute dog."10th February, 2010

favourite waste of time says:
"Jakes is the sister my mother forgot to tell me about. Obviously the product of love, hidden away until I found her on flickr... She makes me laugh, she makes me scream, she makes me wish I lived much further West - no, I mean East. She has an amazing sense of humour, puts the big F in fun and just when you think you have her figured out she rips off her blond wig and body slams you into next week. Oh and fo-toes are her passion especially the ultra expensive Shark Cam and cam phone ones. She has raised fuzzy to an art form and years from now folk will be speaking of this era as the time of Jake's Blur. I will be able to brag that I knew her when... :-)) Always the peace maker and the lover she can be found putting men in their places all across the flickr universe. I would like to write more but there is a man with nutella in his pants who I have to find."

"Jakey is not jakerome's troll. far from it, she is that rare combination of classy and sexy, with a razor sharp wit to boot. A pretty damn alluring combination. She has an unhealthy obsession with old-fashioned cameras, but we love her anyway.
flickr would be an empty desolate place without her."10th December, 2009

"Jakey is one of the reasons I stuck with Flickr when it had become dull for me, and now it isn't dull any more. She'll fight over men, boys, dogs, photos, and gives the most satisfying tongue-lashings one is likely to find for free.
If I MUST be drooled over by a demented lesbian, then I want it to be Jakey. Screeching, becrabbed harridan that she is."8th December, 2009

" Jakes_World is one of those souls i'm surprised i DIDN'T grow up with... for all of the NY photographers i have seen on flickr groups - she ( a tourist) was the first one to show me that obelisk in central park (a must see if i ever get down that way) and that's a hint for the brits - there is a matching one in London - get on it!
Jakes_World is one of few proponants of LoRez i have had the good fortune to have met (well not IRL), and she quotes Confucious / Buckaroo Banzai / Thomas a Kempis and Pigkiller from Beyond Thunderdome all at once.
in short - she rawks!"8th December, 2009

Colusite says:

"Carla has mastered the art of the toy camera and cell phone camera. At first look on her photostream you might think she were some tween stuck out in the middle of nowhere, but she's actually a feisty lady with nice dogs stuck out in the middle of nowhere."

rolandvarriale says:
"Jakes World is a dear friend of mine on pretty much every social networking platform available. I met her because I thought she was Jake Rome but that is one of the best mistakes I have made in a long time.
Whether its her wit or wonderful camera shots Jakes does it all with a lady's touch. She has a firm foundation of connections on flickr and rightfully so. She has a friendly demeanor and is one of the most welcoming people I have ever met on flickr, unless you get on her bad side ;)
In all seriousness though, she is a great photographer who isn't afraid to take chances especially on film *gasp* . I hope that mah cameraphone skillz can improve and catch up to hers one day.
much love"7th September, 2009

"The first thing I think of when you mention "Jakes World" cannot be printed here, it most definitley would offend you and if my Wife saw it I would be a dead man.
Jakes has a canny ability to capture a different angle on life with her lo-res yuppy phone, one which I'm sure would put Pro Photogs to shame. I hope she never buys a real camera !"6th September, 2009

"JW was one of the first people I 'met' on Flickr - and one of the reasons I thought it was worth coming back here!
She always has a wise word - though she usually dioesn't waste it on the crowd at DBOLRL, who I'm sure she would have many words for!

"Jakes_World takes many sublime pictures of the setters. They're brimming with personality and dog je ne sais quoi but the parrot, we never see the parrot. Is the parrot imaginary?

How can you NOT admire such devotion? So, yeah...my world is "Jake's World." And I'm happy to be here. Woof!"
