At this time I have several demands on my time both professionally and personally and will be posting again as soon as time permits.However I do keep an eye on all your posts and appreciate them when time permits with a comment.
Regards Duncan

Your comments and critique are welcome however please avoid garish icons and animations. Invites are also appreciated though I tend not to add to those groups requiring like for like or many comments.
Reciprocity is grand but it does not serve to benefit anyone with enforced icon posting. Genuine comments are far more valuable when given willingly.
I post here in the spirit of cooperation and mutual interest. Should you have no images to share I will not do so with yourself. So be not surprised finding yourself blocked. This applies additionally to anyone with a more lurid profile.
No license is implied by virtue of display on this or any other site, publication or other means of display.
Anyone using my images without written authority or license will incur a default fee of GBP1,000 for each image and for each transgression.
If you intend to use my images commercially then expect that I wish to be remunerated for creating the image/s.
Sorry about this but some people need to be told in no uncertain terms.
I'm a graphics professional starting photography, art and drawing when I was nine. I inherited many of my father's drawing skills but now use the computer for artwork, design and imagery. Additionally I have inherited my mother's couture skills and design which compliments nicely.
As a Professional Photographer I shoot all genre in many styles from Fashion and Portraits to Fetish and Weddings to Commercial and Industrial work.
I am driven to experiment with new ideas I am always looking for new opportunities and subjects to shoot as well as private commissions.
I'm an accomplished Professional Graphic Designer. with a wealth of graphic skills visually and with major software programmes. Having used industry standards for many years I have 20 years of Photoshop experience and over 15 years with other graphic and web software.
Amongst my skills I also Copy write - I've been called a, 'Wordsmith' and write promotional literature, compelling and engaging text for corporate companies and private individuals for both print and web use.
Flickr gives me a welcome opportunity to explore personal projects and ideas.
Occasionally I may post shots from my commercial work but generally these images on Flickr are for my own personal satisfaction and an indication of the wide styles and tastes I shoot.

You Are 89% Tortured Genius

You totally fit the profile of a tortured genius. You're uniquely brilliant - and completely misunderstood.
Not like you really want anyone to understand you anyway. You're pretty happy being an island.
Are You a Tortured Genius?

emaniebo says:
"An imposing presence with an assuming look, Duncan made me comfortable in a relatively new environment when I plunged into photography. Behind this soft-spoken artist lies a well of knowledge which he shares with everyone wanting to explore further and beyond photography.
His images make you think twice and look thrice until you read the underlying message and understand its concept. Someone who knows his craft and injects a different perspective in a seemingly ordinary shot, then you'll realise it creates another image in your mind. A true master of his passion.
In two words? Imaginative with fertile visions. ;-)"16th August, 2008
