The Good, The Bad, The Ugly is a narrative that takes you through a typical day in RVA, from the start of the day all the way to the glamorous nightlife. It depicts the RVA Lifesytle in all its glory, featuring the people and places of Richmond and beyond. Its 100 pages depict the glories of swimming in the river, bike and skate tricks done urban-guerrilla style on sidewalks and handrails, ridiculous party hijinks, and the lesser-known sights of our well-traveled city. These images were captured by hungry young photographers who go to great lengths to practice their art wherever possible, and the love they feel for their art shows in every image. This 5x5 book may not be as big as your average coffee table photography tome, but in the coming years, the work that it contains should be if anything even more important, so be sure to grab yourself a copy while the getting's good. You'll want to treasure this book for years to come.
