Продукти, бренди та ідеї, які відображають еволюцію сучасних підприємців, які займаються спортом на природі та способом життя.

Все більше і більше з нас звертаються до природи, шукаючи спокою, рівноваги та трохи пригод, щоб компенсувати щоденну суєту. The Outsiders демонструє світогляд і пристрасті нової творчої сцени, яка з’явилася, і черпає натхнення в цій розробці разом із оригінальними продуктами, брендами та ідеями.

У книзі відображено свіжий і еволюціонуючий дух сучасних успішних підприємців у сфері активного відпочинку та стилю життя, а також містить інтерв’ю з ключовими гравцями з усього сектора активного відпочинку. Обслуговуючи сучасних мандрівників, ці новатори переосмислюють способи, якими фундаментальні виклики, пов’язані з дикою природою, відповідають естетичним потребам авантюристів, які знають дизайн. Результати часто радикальні, але завжди приємні з випадковим романтичним чи іронічним підморгуванням.

When photographing people, you can have a great composition, perfect light, and the right camera settings, but if your subject doesn't look right -- if the pose is off -- the shot will not be a keeper. Posing is truly a crucial skill that photographers need to have in order to create great photographs. If you're looking to improve your ability to pose your subjects -- whether they're men, women, couples, or groups--best-selling author and photographer Lindsay Adler's The Photographer's Guide to Posing: Techniques to Flatter Everyone is the perfect resource for you.

In the first half of The Photographer's Guide to Posing, Lindsay discusses how the camera sees, and thus how camera angle, lens choice, and perspective all affect the appearance of your subject. Lindsay then covers the five most important things that ruin a pose--such as placement of the hands, and your subject's expression and posture. If you can look out for and avoid these five things, your skills (and your images) will quickly improve. Next, Lindsay dives into "posing essentials," outlining her approach to start with a "base pose," then build on that to create endless posing opportunities. She also discusses posing the face--with specific sections dedicated to the chin, jaw, eyes, and forehead -- as well as posing hands.

In the second half of the book, Lindsay dedicates entire chapters to posing specific subject matter: women, men, couples, curvy women, families and small groups, and large groups. In each chapter, Lindsay addresses that subject matter's specific challenges, provides five "go-to poses" you can always use, and covers how to train the eye to determine the best pose for your subject(s). In the final chapter of the book, Lindsay brings it all together as she teaches you how to analyze a pose so that you can create endless posing opportunities and continuously improve your work

This official souvenir publication celebrates the Platinum Jubilee of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II through 70 photographs chosen to illustrate memorable events in the reign of Britain’s longest-serving monarch.

Delightfully informal family photographs of The Queen as a young girl, as a young wife and mother, on holiday and enjoying the company of her children and dogs are joined by more formal images illustrating the official life of the monarch, on grand state occasions, such as the Coronation, the State Opening of Parliament and Trooping the Colour – not to mention her memorable encounter with James Bond and her dramatic arrival at the ceremony marking the opening of the 2010 London Olympics.

Each photograph is accompanied by resonant quotations from speeches given by The Queen over the years, from her wartime Children’s Hour radio broadcast at the age of 13 and her first televised Christmas Day broadcast in 1957 to her speeches welcoming Commonwealth leaders and US Presidents to Buckingham Palace or responding to the warm hospitality extended to her on state visits to India, Asia, Australia, New Zealand and the Caribbean.

Love of family, fondness for animals, a keen sense of humour, staunch belief in the Commonwealth as a force for good in the world, and gratitude to all the people around the world who go out of their way to help their communities – these are among the themes that come across from this photographic journey through a remarkable life of duty and service.

Motorcycles as motorcycles are meant to be: radical, stylish, subversive, raw. The Ride 2nd Gear continues to present the latest custom bikes and the best builders on the planet.

Men and motorcycles: a story that has vacillated somewhere between cult and cliché for years. Custom bikes, in particular, have a history that is deeply rooted in the spirit of freedom and change of the 1960s, as well as man’s primal urge to build something with his own hands — or, in this case, tools. The Ride 2nd Gear is a showcase of the power and beauty of these bikes.

The Ride 2nd Gear presents a stunning selection of recent custom motorcycles, as well as the small, local workshops around the globe in which they are built. Hotbeds of creativity and craftsmanship, these workshops are mostly run by single individuals and attract a small yet devoted community of fans and fellow builders.

The custom bike community as a whole is united by its passion for the ride — one so strong that it is now attracting a younger generation. Whether alone or in a group of like-minded friends, in a city or in the countryside, just for the weekend or embarking on a long-distance road trip, these drivers are actively sharing and celebrating pure riding pleasure on their own unique motorcycles that are lovingly crafted with time, dedication, and technical expertise.

From limited series to one-offs, The Ride 2nd Gear features the brilliant results of this process. Its pages are filled with bikes that offer extraordinary design and driving experiences. In fact, established brands are now acting on trends set by the custom scene whose bikes are often more radical and sophisticated because more attention can be paid to detail and each new idea can be fine-tuned to perfection.

Some models shown in The Ride 2nd Gear stem from or are based on classic bobbers and choppers, Italian-style racing machines, plastic Japanese motorcycles, and rare BMWs or Triumphs, which may very well be up to 80 years old. Others are art bikes made for show or futuristic visions inspired by the aesthetics of science fiction, fantasy, or anime. But whether they preserve or radically expand on traditional craftsmanship, these custom machines are more agile, faster, and therefore more fun than anything produced in the past.

Journalist and custom motorcycle expert Chris Hunter co-edited both this book and our previous release The Ride. Born in England, Hunter now lives with his family in New Zealand, where he runs the motorcycle website Bike EXIF. It is now the world’s most popular showcase of custom bikes with millions of page views every month and a passionate global following.

The Sartorialist Man: Inspiration Every Man Wants, Education Every Man Needs, by renowned photographer, fashion editor, and social media sensation Scott Schuman, is the definitive fashion primer celebrating the diversity of today's well-dressed man.

Schuman's dynamic street photography captures the essence of style as seen through lens of guys of all ages from around the globe. Setting the new standard, the book will be an invaluable resource for men as they explore and hone their unique personal style. "What I didn't want this book to be was a list of rules. But I do outline principles that will help you make confident decisions about your many sartorial choices," says Schuman in the book's introduction.

The book begins with "Dressing Your Body Type," because when you know what fits your unique body, the better you can pull off any look. In section one, "Clothing," Schuman delves into wardrobe basics with "Elements"--an illustrated glossary of everything from jackets and pants, and collars and cuffs, to outerwear and underwear. Also sprinkled throughout are "Style Strategies" explaining how stylish gentlemen do what they do so well, and the "Focus" section is filled with tips on to how to talk to a tailor, view the runway, and discover inspiration from friends and colleagues.

The second part of the book tackles everything you need to know about accessories--whether to go socks or no socks, and how to tie a tie, choose the right glasses or sunglasses, and find the right shoe. Part three, "Maintenance & Sustainability," is filled with illustrated step-by-step instructions on how to care for, mend, fold, store, and pack your clothes and footwear. Schuman even shares pointers on the how and why to invest in key pieces of your wardrobe, shop online or in person, or buy vintage or new.

Refreshing, contemporary, and inspiring, this striking menswear tome will come to define today's essence of style. The Sartorialist: Man is about enjoying the freedom to explore what looks great on you--and that, perhaps, is the ultimate chic.

6 орбітальних апаратів, 140 місій, 355 астронавтів, 500 000 000 миль — усе в одній насиченій і красивій фотографічній подорожі

The Space Shuttle розповідає історію дивовижної програми NASA Space Shuttle та її 140 космічних польотів (135 місій, а також п’ять випробувань на заходження на посадку та посадку) в унікальному та бажаному вигляді. Задовго до того, як телескоп Джеймса Вебба відновив наше захоплення астрономією та нашим місцем у космосі, космічний шаттл почав привертати увагу світу своєю першою місією (випробувальний запуск) 12 квітня 1981 року і продовжував це робити до своєї останньої місії 8 липня 2011 року. Шість орбітальних апаратів програми, це Enterprise, Columbia, Challenger, Discovery, Atlantis та Endeavour.

Кожна місія має свою захоплюючу історію, і Space Shuttle переказує ці історії в хронологічному порядку за допомогою неймовірних фотографій, зроблених фотожурналістами NASA, художніми фотографами та самими астронавтами. Кожне зображення супроводжується коротким текстом, який містить короткі факти, такі як члени екіпажу, дата запуску та дата приземлення, а також короткий огляд основних моментів і призначення. Наприклад, місією STS-78 було вивчення циркадних ритмів у космосі; Місія STS-41G полягала в тому, щоб робити фотографії під час польоту, які можна побачити у фільмі IMAX Мрія жива; і, як відомо, перший відкритий вихід у відкритий космос, здійснений астронавтом Брюсом МакКендлессом на STS-41B з використанням самохідного рюкзака (так званий Maneuvering Unit [MMU]), дозволив астронавтам захопити супутники для вилучення та ремонту, а також для запланованого будівництва того, що стало Міжнародною космічною станцією (МКС). До цієї місії астронавти були прикріплені до шаттла страховочними мотузками. Фотографія МакКендлесса, що ширяє над поверхнею Землі, є однією з найвідоміших і найвідоміших космічних фотографій. Це лише деякі з 140 історій, які Міллер розповідає в цій чудовій книжці.

«Будь-який астроном або космічний ентузіаст був би радий мати цю візуальну подорож на своїй полиці».

Taboo meets aesthetics

Over the past two decades Frieke Janssens has built a solid reputation in staged photography. Her visual language is both surprising and playful and reveals a great sense of humor. It is often redolent with tension and her works exude an unspoken, tragic undercurrent. Janssens' images are sumptuously beautiful, but touch upon subjects that aren't: death, smoking, drinking, and the battle between the sexes. This combination of taboo and pure aestheticism marks her style, hence: The Sweetest Taboo.

About the Author:

When a Frieke Janssens photograph appears in a major Belgian magazine it does not go unnoticed, but it is her own publications that have garnered worldwide acclaim as meticulous series of photographs, impressively framed with a strong aesthetic attraction. Janssens has opened exhibitions everywhere, from Vladivostok to New York. In 2016, she held an overview exhibit called 20 Years of Photography in Antwerp.
