I agree that the staging of these shots would be a bit much under normal circumstances, but this is a submission for a contest Epaulet is running, so I'm hoping to score some creativity points here.

I especially like how he rolls his sleeves down to make his chess move, then rolls them back up. F. Corbera's sleeve-rolling thread is already paying dividends.

There is no such thing as a bad Fair Isle sweater. Looking splendid. Great cuffs on great looking trousers.


+1 on the Fair Isle love, though I've seen plenty of bad ones.

I am easily pleased. Three things that, to me, are never bad:

1. The music of Bach.
2. TWG Tea.
3. Fair Isle sweaters.

:D

I think your last two posts have been outstanding in terms of both clothing and composition. Maybe I'm not qualified to say so, but they seem magazine-quality to me.

I looked up your moleskins on the Epaulet website and they don't look nearly as rich in color there as they do in your photos. Did you tweak the colors a bit in your images, or is Epaulet not doing their own clothing justice on their site?

Thanks, man! I do tweak the colors a bit, but only for color correction. The color in those pictures is very close to real life.

Just checked Epaulet's website, and I'd say they look a little browner in those pics that in real life. Just to be sure, I put my actual pair next to my laptop monitor. :)
