To celebrate the @lens/bonsai grant collaboration with @lens/p00ls I've created a special 1-of-1 variant of my **A Nice Drive™** collection... featuring a yacht 🚤 The rain clouds represent the unsettled thoughts of the wealthy boat owner as he heads towards his dream destination 🌧 Enjoy!
**$PURPOSE** was created by @lens/eliankutse using @lens/p00ls to reward Collectors + Creatives 💫 The hope is that people will use $PURPOSE to support each other and encourage artists to keep putting out art 💎 Follow this account to keep updated with all $PURPOSE news and any initiatives + incentives we give out 🔜 ⚠️ Note: This is the official @club/lens profile for the $PURPOSE token, we are not currently on any other social platforms
I visted the **Berry Bros & Rudd** store on St James Street for a whisky tasting and was blown away by the history they still have on site 🍷 Pictured are bottles of Napoleon's personal wine collection, Sir Winston Churchill's drinks order for postwar VDay celebrations, and Lord Byron's weight measured in 1806 😅 (the scales are pictured too) ⚖️ When I've arrived at the store they'd just had confirmation that they'd been awarded another Royal Warrant; their first one from King Charles! 🤴 A great tasting and history lesson in one ✨️🥃

The moment has arrived. You can now obtain the key to our universe through Lens, acquiring it with your beloved currency, BONSAI. The price is currently set at 3700 BONSAI. For fairness and sustainability concerns, The Archway shall be sold in batches of 25. We'll provide clarification in the upcoming days. Here's the journey you must undertake to ensure The Archway finds its way to your sanctuary: Collect the post → Comment your BASE address → Check your wallet within 24 hours It's as simple as that. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. You can send us a message on Telegram at “@eduardmsmr” if you need assistance or guidance! Once again, we're sharing a message previously conveyed by the visionary behind Mismir, so you can understand the importance and significance of The Archway: The Archway is the first piece of Mismir, imbued with all the values I hold dear. It encompasses all the elements that serve as the foundation of Mismir, my beloved fashion brand soon to be regarded as a piece of art. From The Prologue, its inaugural garment, to Dremis, the garden of Dreams and people, and to Mirisity, our beloved reimagined rose, it embodies them all. The Archway represents the beginning of a journey filled with love, kindness, and empathy, one that heads towards the elements that drive me, and implicitly the brand itself: expression, connection, and empowerment. The Archway serves as the gateway to a plethora of experiences and benefits within Mismir. From redeeming the physical version of The Prologue and claiming Dremis to engaging in co-creation, expressing and empowering yourself, and exploring various digital and physical products and experiences, it unlocks the full spectrum of opportunities. Moreover, it offers the chance to delve deeper into the story of Mirisity and participate in its co-creation. In essence, The Archway represents the key to accessing all that Mismir has to offer. I'm excited to meet you and embark on a journey together. Let's redefine not only the boundaries of fashion but life itself! Mismir is about creating a brighter future for humanity—one where love, kindness, and empathy reign supreme. With love, Eduard🌹

******ROLLS-ROYCE EDITION ~ PHANTOM SERIES II**(5 Editions) I took this photo in 2012 in the Cap Estel Hotel in Monaco 🇲🇨 It was the first time I realised how much I liked photographing cars, but also how the monolithic shape of a Rolls-Royce car was actually elegant in its simplicity 🤌🏾✨️
**Paradigm** #15 by **ippsketch** 📊
**ROLLS-ROYCE EDITIONS** ~ launching soon ✨️
**2k Followers** 🥳🎉 Thanks for the support! Here's a free mint edition based on my **A Nice Drive™** Collection 🚗 Enjoy!
**STEINWAY & SONS** ~ Edition 6 of 7 This may look like some archaic torture device but I assure you it's actually a rim-bending machine designed by Steinway & Sons to form one of the most important parts of a grand piano. The process is still completed by hand-as it has been for the past 140 years-the pictured presses having recenty undergone some minor performance upgrades. A vital process, the stability and durability of the piano rim plays an integral role in achieving that special "Steinway Sound" 🎼 [ Camera ~ Leica M Monochrom ] Tomorrow I'll release the final photo in the series along with the last part of the story ✨️ Check out **Editions 1, 2, 3, 4** & **5** to read the rest of the story
**STEINWAY & SONS** ~ Edition 5 of 7 An integral part of the grand piano's sound quality is the cast-iron plate to which strings are attached, exerting a force of 20 tonnes on the metallic structure. To this end Steinway & Sons dedicated a Foundry in the US to creating the bespoke metal plates, which are then hand-finished and assembled in Hamburg 🏭 [ Camera ~ Leica M Monochrom ] For the next 2 days I'll release a photo along with another part of the story ✨️ Check out previous **Editions 1, 2, 3** & **4** to read the rest of the story
**STEINWAY & SONS** ~ Edition 4 of 7 The hardwood maple and mahogany used to make the pianos are stored in a specialist lumbaryard for two-years and allowed to dry naturally, as not compromise their sound integrity in any way. The wood is then coaxed into shape by specialist rim-bending equipment (you can see the equipment designs on the wall in the **Edition 2 **photograph). After bending, the rims need to be rested for a further 100 days before they are ready for use 🎹 [ Camera ~ Leica M Monochrom ] For the next 3 days I'll release a photo along with another part of the story ✨️ Check out **Editions 1, 2 **& **3 **to read the rest of the story

**STEINWAY & SONS** ~ Edition 3 of 7 One thing that struck me about the way they worked in the Factory is that there was no rush; the process was the process, and perfection the goal. Understandably so too. Such is the quality of their grand pianos that even Steinway & Sons affiliated Pianists have to pay full price for their instruments; the honor of being chosen to be Steinway & Sons Artist is the reward itself 🤌🏾 [ Camera ~ Leica M Monochrom ] For the next 5 days I'll release a photo along with another part of the story ✨️ Check out Editions 1 & 2 to read the rest of the story
**STEINWAY & SONS** ~ Edition 2 of 7 It was 1904 when **Steinway Haus** first opened in Hamburg, and to this day their grand pianos are handmade in the same way they have been since 1880. This photo I took was one of my favourites as it captures how unbothered the workers were by any "distractions"; many of whom had been honing their skills for 50 plus years, elite in their chosen skill 🎼 [ Camera ~ Leica M Monochrom ] For the next 6 days I'll release a photo along with another part of the story ✨️ Check out **Edition 1** to read the first part of the story
Some Alpha 💎 The CEO of Steinway & Sons bought the rights to use these images for their press campaign, as he felt they captured the soul of the factory 🙌🏾 Edition 2 is already live, 5 more to follow 🔜
The unedited version of this image was available as a fine art print to collectors that owned the corresponding NFT ✨️ For this @lens/lens mint I'm offering whoever collects it the physical fine art print _as well_ as the mint, so they can enjoy it, regardless of the format 🖼 You can find the rest of my Editions on OpenSea here -> https://opensea.io/collection/the-editions-by-eli

**STEINWAY & SONS** ~ Edition 1 of 7 In 2015 I visted the Steinway & Sons factory in Hamburg to capture their exquisite work behind closed doors for one of our JOSHUA's Magazine Issues 🎹 For the next 7 days I'll release a photo along with another part of the story ✨️ [ Camera ~ Leica M Monochrom ]
This is my **Decagon #32589** (currently on Level 63) created by famed generative artist **Kjetil Golid** 🔲 The beauty of this art is that it can evolve infinitely; as you browse the** Deca.art** platform, each day you're given points which-when you reach a threshold-you can use to evolve your Decagon level by level, watching your art randomly change as you do. At times you'll fall more in love with your Decagon, at other times you can't wait for it to evolve again, but either way it's a beautiful way to reward art lovers 🤌🏾 For now you can collect mine and enjoy! 😊 If you're interested you can create your own Decagon at www.Deca.art ✨️
This is quite possibly the most important photo I've ever taken, although I didn't realise it at the time. It was taken in Monaco at the Hotel Cap Estel in 2012 on my first ever Press trip abroad. It was also the first time I'd ever photographed at an event, in fact the camera I used wasn't even mine, I borrowed it off a friend 😅 I didn't know at the time, but it was the first international event in many years for Rolls-Royce Cars as they embarked on a new journey with a new CEO and marketing team; the car pictured is the Phantom Series II. But the main impact of this photo was realised when I got home, as it inspired me to create my own publication @lens/joshuasdigital, which initially launched as a print magazine globally. The edit below was used on JOSHUA's Magazine Issue ONE and is a **big** reason I'm still working with Rolls-Royce _to this day_ 🙏🏾 This photo was a _catalyst_, the start of a **dream being realised** 💎 Who ever collects this post not only gets a** 1-of-1 **and something very close to my heart, but **I'll send them a physical print issue of JOSHUA's Magaizne from our archives as well** (any issue apart from Issue ONE, which I have no copies of 😅🥲). Thanks & God bless! 🤎
This is a @Lens special 1-of-1 one based on my A Nice Drive™ collection minting now on OpenSea 🚖 It's a memoir to my time spent in the back of a cab in NYC taking in the sights as a child 😊 The full collection of 333 is minting now here - https://opensea.io/collection/a-nice-drive/overview (This edition won't be in the collection 🤎) P.s. if you mint this background, you have a rare one 👌🏾
