Slender Series Preview

It's been an incredibly busy time of late.  I just got back Ireland and am off to Scotland this weekend for some more shooting.

There's also been a lot of behind-the-scenes development going on.  One product/portfolio which I'm currently engaged on is a new black and white 'Slender Series'.  It will be presented in a discrete 5:1 ratio and will include open edition prints ranging from 10” to 18” in size. 

If you adhere to a strict 100% quality standard - as I do - then it takes an incredible amount of time and patience to introduce a new product.  Artworks have to be carefully selected, suppliers have to be evaluated and websites need to be flawlessly updated. 

Many more details on this exciting series soon!

Britain on View Exhibition

Jaspal Jandu will be providing the keynote image of a new exhibition covering Britain's favourite vistas. The agency 'Britain on View' have searched high and low for more stunning photographs taken by some of the most talented landscape photographers in the UK.

Over 17,000 visitors attended the two-week long exhibition last year.  The 2008 exhibition looks set to top this and will be well worth visiting at the OXO Gallery 21 Feb - 9th Mar 08.

Kind regards

Work, Rest and Play

After a last-minute skiing vacation to Chamonix, France popped up on the internet, I must admit that it was difficult leaving some of the heavy-duty camera gear at home.

One of the best ways to combine ‘down-time’ with photography ‘up-time’ is to shoot during the un-social hours of the day (very early and very late) and then devote the rest of the day to the vacation.  Not only does this provide you with the required shooting fix for the day but (more importantly) it keeps a semblance of balance with your companions!

The shot above is case-in-point.  It was taken unfeasibly early one morning with the mercury hovering around -10c.  I was up at 5am and somehow managed to get back for a late breakfast after the gentle morning light had faded.  The rest of the day involved sliding around on the snow gaining new bruises in places I never knew existed.  Bliss, in a very weird way…
