Panos Emporio prepares for summer ’09
As mentioned in this weekend’s feature, we’ve had photographs from Panos Emporio’s summer 2009 for quite some time, but March is a far better time to release them than September.

Lagonda returns at Salon de Genève—but will it fly?

Opel shows Ampera, its version of the Chevrolet Volt, at Genève
General Motors intends to overtake the Toyota Prius with its Chevrolet Volt—a vehicle that is an electric car first, with a petrol engine that only kicks in when extended range is needed. (The Prius, in layman’s terms, works the other way round, with a hybrid engine assisting the petrol one—though around town, the Prius tries […]
We wish the world revolved around Italy
Lucire has a distinct Italian flavour at the moment, thanks in part to photographer Thomaz and his Milano shots from two fashion week shows so far: Byblos and Frankie Morello.

This could have been our main cover image for the Lucire website—it’s fun and vibrant, and taken a few weeks ago at Bread & Butter Barcelona by our long-time photojournalist, Joma García i Gisbert.
