GRAIN & GRAM

I just discovered an interesting website called Grain & Gram - The New Gentleman's Journal.  Some interesting video's, in depth interviews and a blog, all mainly focussing on craftsmanship. The quality of the website is high. Great photography, great storytelling, beautiful made video's, you should definitely take a look.

I would love to share this video they made with you about a woodworker called Blair Sligar.

INSIDE THE AMERICAN

An unsurpassed atmosphere!

The blog Iconolo.gy posted seventeen great pictures entitled 'Inside The American'. They where taken during the birth of Anton Corbijn his film The American. Almost all the pictures where taken by Anton Corbijn himself.

See all the pictures here.

THE SARTORIALIST

This guy (I presume he doesn't need any introduction) has a pretty nice job. I would love to make a living like this for a few years.

CONCOURSE D'ELEGANCE PALACE HET LOO 2010 (PART 1)

Shattered sunlight breaking trough the old trees. The light falling down on the cars, painted in the most vibrant shade of red, blue or yellow.  The lustrous green lane that leads to the entry of the Palace, is used as a decor for the sprint.

Cars roar, people drink, laugh and have their pictures taken in front of these monuments in car history.

I had the pleasure to spend this weekend at the Concours D'élégance at Paleis het Loo in Apeldoorn, and managed to make some photographs. 

The garden of the former Palace of the Queen of the Netherlands hosted the yearly event, where some of the most exclusive cars of Europe are gathered to compete in beauty, style and of course..speed! 

Enjoy!

It is said that this is a photograph of Christopher Johnson McCandless. I think it's beautiful.

JFK : THE MAN MAKES THE CLOTHES

UNSURPASSED ATMOSPHERE

These photographs are from the previous Hackett 2009 Spring/Summer Collection. In my opinion: one of the best ads ever displayed, among others like the Patek Philippe Ads. 

A certain nonchalance...

If I wouldn't know better, these photo's could just be real life pictures, and not a fashion shoot.

Especially pay attention to the choker, the atmosphere and the unsurpassed haircut.

More pictures after the click.

At some point in your life, you should own a canoe.

PRE-WAR BUGATTI TYPE 37A IN THE WILD

I was riding my bicycle the other day and then a dark green Range Rover Classic pulled up besides me...eh pulling a pre-war Bugatti racer with a young guy in it!

It looked like a Type 37A. So, I started yelling at the driver if it was real one..and he shouted back to me it was an original.

I know, not the best shot ever, and that's an understatement! But I really had to try hard to keep up with them.  Anyway, I want one.

And it would make a great logo for something..!

Old Porsche Racer by Solido. Ow, and it has suspension!

Fully equipped with a nice red steering wheel, red helmet, race-goggles and a race-overal. Hm, and a wicked exhaust!

Looks like the driver has got all he needs!

I bought this in a second-hand store some time ago..I'm in love (hm..well, I like it).

It will get a great spot on my desk, next to the Citroën DS.

In addition on the recent post on great advertising and the recent post on building your own glider: the Dunhill Campaign featuring Jude Law.

Timeless!
