WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?
We may be halfway a very hot summer but, in July’s GQ Russia is still breezy spring. The magazine hosts in its pages an editorial titled “can’t showcase Russian alphabet” (“In the shadow of young girls in flower”), by Marcel Proust’s novel. While Proust dissects male and female throughout adolescence, the period that bodies and souls are blooming, photographer Michele Laurita through her lens captures an equivalent blooming fashion-wise, working the magic of double exposure in order to create a paradisiac landscape styled by Ekaterina Melnikova with protagonists Niclas Gillis and Jennifer McMannis.

beautiful work! posters for posterity!2
I like it. And it grabbed your attention esp. if you posted a comment below. whether you love it or hate I don't see anything where it promotes violence or degrading women.. what i see is government taking away the rights of a citizen n the rights away from people. Failure to follow instructions will land us in prison like the model. Now if steven photographed the same concept with average shmucks would we pay much attention to it? i dont think so. it'd be just another political journalistic photograph.3
