LondonWide - Open Edition Prints
Samuel Johnson once noted that "When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life" and, in a similar vein, we are very pleased to announce the release of an exciting new series of Open Edition Prints of this great city.
Enjoy timeless panoramic views of London from renowned photographer, Jaspal Jandu. From Tower Bridge to Big Ben, from Canary Wharf to the Royal Parks, Jaspal has bought his unique panoramic eye to this great capital city through the course of the seasons.
The range of open edition prints are presented in discreet acid-free mount board and are ideal for personal, souvenir or gift use. Further details and pricing can be found in the new Open Edition Gallery.
Kindest regards
Jaspal Jandu Photography

Back on the road again....
Hello everyone. A busy time in the real world which has left little or no time for this crazy virtual one.
Firstly, the Panoramic Visions show closed successfully in early May and there’ll be images and chat from the show soon.
Given the popularity of the smaller, open edition London images, it’s no surprise to see they are now on permanent display/sale at the Kraken Opus gallery for those who are interested.
Lastly, immediately after the show closed I was booked on a commission piece around the UK so I have been busy exactly where a photographer should be - behind a lens rather than a computer.
It was during this shoot that I had time to re-evaluate my camera equipment. After some thought, I am in the process of trading-in and trading-out of a few pieces (Fixation is always a good place to start such proceedings for those of similar inclination). I’ll be writing a piece on my current preferred ‘panoramic’ set-up next month.
Am back in the UK now, so more updates soon…

Natural Wonders of Another Kind
Quick update. The exhibition is going fantastically well and pictures will follow as soon as we download them from the various memory cards.
Also, with all this talk of volcanic ash you would expect there to be a multitude of photographers out there taking pictures of incredible sunsets, but all we’ve had in the UK is bright blue sky and definition-less high cloud...
Still, I suppose it lets us drool over the gob-smacking new images/videos from a) Reuters and b) Nasa’s Solar Dynamics Observatory from the comfort of our monitors!

Jaspal Jandu Photography Website 2.0
Whilst I was shooting the famous karst / limestone scenery of China for Natural Wonders, I heard a great local quote which went along the lines of "...be not afraid of going slowly; be only afraid of standing still".
So, in that vein, we are very pleased to announce a major reboot of the website.
We've manged to tidy up the design and update all the background code for the modern desktop and mobile worlds. Also, there is a hell of a lot which is yet to be rolled out (such as member's area, hi-def video, new exhibition gallery etc) so stay tuned for that.
As ever, we would welcome your thoughts on the new website so please drop us an email or leave a comment if you can.
Lastly, many thanks to Nick at Coldmountain for the help and also the patience in dealing with the many - often minor - requests!
Enjoy and more to come....

A Panoramic Update!
Its been a busy month and on more than one occasion I have wanted to take comfort in the classic Homer Simpson quote “…if something's hard to do, then it's not worth doing!”
But, despite his literary wit, we must press on. So in no particular order, here’s a run down:
- “Panoramic Visions” 2010 Exhibition – The big one. I cannot emphasize enough how much work goes into a big exhibition nowadays. Organising prints, hanging displays, guest lists etc etc. is an enormous undertaking and it’s easy to fall off the critical path towards opening night if you are not careful. There’ll be a separate piece on this soon, so stay tuned for that.
- Open Edition Prints – Having spent over 18 months now shooting various parts of London, I’m getting happy with a new portfolio of images from this incredible city. The aim is to compile these into smaller open edition prints; the first 20 of which will be available at the 2010 exhibition.
- New Website – There’s also the not-insubstantial issue of a brand new website in the pipeline. Amongst other things it will handle things like merchandise and hi-definition video much better than the current one so I would welcome any thoughts you have on it when it goes live in the next month or so.
- Travel Plans – Lastly, it’s easy to forget that there is a world out there waiting to be explored! To this end, there’s a trip to the volcanoes of Hawaii coming up and then the possibility of storm chasing next year. Just can’t wait for these two…
So, lots of work to do and hopefully you’ll be seeing the fruits of this labour in person at the exhibition in April….

Panorama Interview
What better way to kick off the New Year than with a newly published interview in Panorama – the International Association of Panoramic Photographers’ (IAPP) journal of panoramic imaging.
The journal itself often contains a fascinatingly eclectic mix of articles (e.g. stitching macro panoramas, astrophotography etc.) and you can read my specific thoughts on the panoramic format in the interview.
If you’re into panoramas and/or wide-field imaging, then have a look through the website and become a member…
