It seems like my feet have barely touched the ground over the last week what with the new look website going up, setting up large prints for a corporate client and hanging a show locally in Kingston. Finally I have a chance to sit down, reflect on events and concentrate on what is next.

If you haven't had a look already check out the new and vastly improved website www.duncan-photo.com. Having looked at that and you get a thought that someone you know could use me to photograph their food, designs, products or faces then ping the link to them, happy days.

If you are in Kingston, having a day in Richmond park or are nearby and fancy a sandwich then pop into the Park Cafe on Park Road. You can enjoy a coffee and also a collection of my work shot whilst in Yangon last year. I am currently putting a project together to go back and make a larger project on the country.

For now though here is what I have been shooting when I had a minute to get my camera out, enjoy...




I hope that will keep you ticking over until I next get a breather. I realise that these lovely photographs will have made you forget so here is the reminder, tell everyone you know if they need a photographer Duncan Longden is the guy for the job.......

Ups and Downs!
Had a great meeting and then things went quiet but as ever a bit of patience seems to be paying off. On Monday I set up my studio and spent a long day making food shots, these are now lined up and ready to launch with my new look site.
I received a call for a shoot which happened on Tuesday during an event at London Olympia. It was interesting and a good test of my skills to make something from a not ideal situation. All worked out well though and the advert and brochures should be sent to press soon.
Wednesday brought a meeting with my super talented web designer Beech and a revelation regarding traffic to my site. This has brought a major re-design which hopefully will result in more viewings and, fingers crossed work.
Stop talking and show us some work I hear you cry, well ok then. Here are a few street shots, I totally love my Fuji X100. Enjoy these....






 
The last 2 were shot at Tate Modern after a very enjoyable and educational viewing of the Surrealist's show, if you haven't seen it and have a chance I recommend you get yourself down there and enjoy some culture.
