Over here in Taiwan we’re currently feeling the lingering effects of typhoon Morakot. Over in London meanwhile, there’s a new photographer on the scene, one who seeks to show viewers the London that isn’t shown on postcards. Shutterbug Sunday today looks at James D Photo.
Up by James D
Relatively new to photography, James has been living in London for a decade and photographing it for a year. Starting out with an interest in architecture, James says,
this quickly developed into a fascination with the city as a whole. I’m fascinated by man’s impact on the city and the city’s impact on man. Whilst it is an incredible city to live in, it is also hugely stressful, and I try and capture this darker side of it. I want to show the alternative side to London’s typical postcard scenes
Banksy by James D
Like all large cities London changes daily, and I want to document the role humans have on it, whether it is a new building or a piece of street art. Whilst most photographers have a number of projects on the go that they are working on, my project is London.
As well as the earlier link to his photoblog, James D’s work can be seen at Flickr and he can also be found posting on Twitter, where he’s known as @jamesdphotoblog.

Craig Ferguson Images is consistantly creating new visions in the field of cultural photography. From traditional festives and customs to modern, urban subcultures, Craig Ferguson Images is in touch with the changing world. From our base in Taipei, Taiwan we are perfectly positioned at the crossroads of the ancient and the modern.

Very impressive works!
The first frame makes you dizzy – The more you look at it, the less clear what's up and where it down
Awesome!
Be careful with that typhoon thing!
That first shot is indeed trippy. Thanks for the typhoon mention – pretty bad in some parts of Taiwan but my place seems to be in a safe zone. We had barely any rain or wind.
Very amazing compositions! I especially like the first image. the lines are just awesome and captured it excellently.
