I <3 Rapha

Some think they look cool in it. Others like myself understand but admit defeat. It is called cycling gear, and most look ridiculous.

Rapha is what you get when you combine the words: tailored, functional, stylish and performing. Rapha is the Y-3 of cycling apparel.

Here are my favorite pieces from their Autumn Winter 2009 Range Preview:

inspiration for shooting half-naked models? yes. inspiration for that.

i think there is only so much intimacy you can capture with color. i think the finer emotions and hidden undertones in a photograph can only be revealed in black and white. i think the proximity to your subject becomes closer and the photograph becomes more transparent and eye to eye in black and white.
