Forbidden Fruit.  Maybe not garden of Eden but four beautiful models in nature .
True art by the Artist Karl Ferris in his Psychedelic Style.

In 1969, I deciding to take a rest from my Rock and Fashion photography in London. So I compiled my best  Sensual photographs of some of the new  Supermodels that I had shot up till then,  and titled the collection “Super Stars 69”, which was published in the German “TWEN” Art magazine. Then from this, in the 70s I shot models for various European Glamour magazines and later for US. 'Playboy',  where I also shot a 'Celebrity Pictorial' of Melonie Haller - John Travolta's love interest in the Hit TV series "Welcome Back Kotter"...Melonie then became my girlfriend,  and we were later married in Monterey, California.
