Henri Cartier-Bresson “Magnum is a community of thought, a shared human quality, a curiosity about what is going on in the world, a respect for what is going on and a desire to transcribe it visually,” the late photographer and Magnum co-founder once said. The photo agency celebrates its 70th anniversary at magnumphotos.com/ magnum- photos-70/, and with a book titled Magnum Manifesto (Thames & Hudson). ort photos n PA E 48.T e stre gt wit in“ Yuky Lutz Fashion photographer Lutz, who currently lives between Barcelona and Zürich, is an expert at capturing the energy of fugitive moments.

Spanish siren First she captured the heart of an Avenger. Now Elsa Pataky is taking down bad guys on the big screen in The Fate of the Furious. Long before she married Chris Hemsworth, actress and model Elsa Pataky was a star in her native Spain. This month, the multilingual beauty (aside from English and Spanish, she is also fluent in Italian, Romanian and French) reprises her role as the incorruptible cop Elena Neves in The Fate of the Furious, the eighth installment of the blockbuster franchise. It’s a natural fit for the globe-trotter, sports enthusiast and fitness nut, who enjoys riding dirt bikes near her current home in Australia and challenging Hemsworth during their rigorous workout routines. If she can keep up with Thor, she’s clearly a goddess. @elsapatakyconfidential…

Shoegazing Investing in sneakers won’t make you rich, but that doesn’t mean it’s not a whole lot of fun. Remember that friend of yours whose closet-sized sneaker collection was all look and no touch? He probably thought he was sitting on a gold mine. Turns out he might be after all. Enter StockX, an online marketplace that’s the brainchild of data-obsessive sneakerhead Josh Luber. “If you look at the resale market over time, it looks exactly like a Nike Swoosh,” he says. “The price starts high pre-release, comes down and then climbs up.” How steep it rises is a function of demand. For example, a pair of $220 zebra-striped Yeezys released by Adidas in February are now trading at five times that due to rumors of a limited run. So…

Jaguar XKSS Out of the ashes of a fire at Jaguar’s factory that destroyed the originals, nine new cars have been reborn. The odds of getting your hands on a Jaguar XKSS, often referred to as the original supercar, aren’t quite as monumental as those of winning the lottery�they’re worse. In order to pocket the keys to one of just 16 known examples, you’ll need to pick the lucky numbers just to get the funds to enter the real lottery to buy one. Need proof? Last month an original XKSS, chassis 716, was put up for sale by auction house Gooding & Co. It was the first time an XKSS had come to market since 2005, and the conservative presale valuation was an eye-watering $18 million. Lucky, then, that Jaguar…
