Tokyo is a very lively city, with contrasts at every
turn. With that in mind, it also provides a rather interesting palette for
Rolls-Royce’s Black Badge models, such as the Dawn, Wraith and Ghost. The three models were captured
through the lens of three international photographers, each bringing a
different take “to a common story line of playing hard in the metropolis after
dark, before retiring to the calm solitude of the city limits.”
Starting with the Wraith Black Badge, it was captured
on camera by Japanese photographer Yoshifumi Ogawa, who snapped it among the
“bustling glitz” of Ginza, as well as on the raised highways and out across
Rainbow Bridge, alongside the Ghost Black Badge.
Meanwhile, British photographer Mark Riccioni, started
with the Dawn Black Badge in Akihabara, mixing the car’s Magma Red paint job
with the region’s brazen neon signs. From there, he ventured out to the islands
of Tokyo Bay, before retiring to the residential streets of Nakameguro at
sunrise.
The third and final perspective came from
photographer Darren Chan, who captured the Wraith Black Badge both as
stationary and on a roll on the highways that skirt Tokyo Bay. He also worked
alongside the Ghost Black Badge, both models featuring a “devilish” orange
coachline.
