PHOTOS BY VAN STYLES "LIGHT & SHADOWS :: LORA LEE" VISUALAPPAREL.COM
For years I developed a style of utilizing natural light from windows to create a sort of soft and dreamy back lit effect. In recent times I have found myself having a lot more fun creating images with a model using lights and shadows. Below is a set I had done with Lora Lee which demonstrates a mix of both techniques. Progression in your craft is always fun especially with something such as photography being you can document the process. Enjoy!

Dual branding appears on the heels in a contrasting assortment of colors.

The BMW Radical Is One Monolithic Motorcycle

Turkish designer Mehmet Doruk Erdem has come up with yet another motorcycle concept design that will have everyone drooling. Following in the same theme as the BMW Titan, it seems Erdem likes the fat rear tires, low profile riding positions and obviously, futuristic stylings. Breaking away from traditional designs, the BMW Radical looks like it just came out of TRON:Legacy complete with what closely resembles a full piece body armor. The monolithic yet minimal design places riders in an aerodynamic position to help them to reach speeds only a BMW bike could offer. With a little push, BMW might turn this concept into a prototype.
