Our Cover

PIM started off 1972 with a cover picture of a Fiji Indian fire-walker with a trident driven through his tongue.

Some readers found it a ghastly spectacle, so for those we offer a less eye popping aspect of Fiji fire walking. This regal "goddess" was photographed beside the firepit by Sheree Upton, much travelled photographer whose book on Fiji should appear soon.
