This beautiful editorial is the work of London based photographer David Ryle and art director Gem Fletcher. The series entitled ‘Steam’ has continued to garner attention, including a selection for the 2012 AOP Awards.

The milky color palette adds to the softness of the misty steam. Moisture collects on different surfaces, blurring the texture without masking the edges. What I love most about these images is their simplicity. They draw you in, and you are glad to stay.

And just in case you were trying to figure out how they did it.
