duncan_grove Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 <p>I have not participated in this forum before (as far as I can remember anyway)! I am a passionate sports photographer. If anyone is interested, they can see <a href="http://www.duncangrove.com/frps-panel#h8b37e15">here </a>my panel of twenty Wimbledon 2010 images that secured me a Fellowship of The Royal Photographic Society. Images from the entire Championships can be seen <a href="http://www.duncangrove.com/wimbledon-tennis-images-2010">here </a>.<br> From Thursday of this week I shall be shooting (as accredited photographer) the Xchanging Oxford and Cambridge Universities Boat Race, and on the Thursday have been kindly invited by the CUBC to follow a practice outing aboatd their ML AMARYLLIS. I shall be posting images to my site daily - images from last year's race can be seen <a href="http://www.duncangrove.com/boatrace2010#h32b30ae1">here </a>.<br> I also shoot squash and am Official Photogrpaher for The ROWE British Squash Grand Prix (Europe's largest squash tournament.) My images from 2010 can be seen <a href="http://www.duncangrove.com/rowe-british-squash-grand-prix-images-2010">here </a>.<br> I would like to enter correspondence with people of similar interests.<br> Regards<br> Duncan Grove FRPS<br> <a href="http://www.duncangrove.com">www.duncangrove.com</a><br> <a href="http://www.duncangroveblog.com">www.duncangroveblog.com</a></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjmeade Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 <p>Congratulations on the FRPS.<br> I also enjoyed your squash work, I used to play the odd game.<br> I keep printing polo photos from RMA Sandhurst as a potential panel, but still haven't got round to it.<br> One of the possible highlights from the day may be Sir Steven Redgrave's daughter in the women's race. she's just taken up the sport and seems to be quite good.<br> Have you come across Robert Williams from the Lightweight World Champions' team? He lives just over the road from me. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncan_grove Posted March 23, 2011 Author Share Posted March 23, 2011 <p>Hi Peter<br> Thanks for your comments - polo is something I would like to shoot but have never got around to it - yet!<br> The women's race takes place in Henley on the Sunday so I shan't be shooting that. I am just hoping the sun keeos shining until after the race!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjmeade Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 <p>How did you get on, what were your shots like.<br> For me, the day was rather overshaddowed by England getting thumped in the cricket.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncan_grove Posted March 29, 2011 Author Share Posted March 29, 2011 <p>Thursday and Friday were great - floating on the Thames in the sunshine with a camera in my hand - it doesn't get any better! The weather for race day was not so good and this shows in my shots but I still thoroughtly enjoyed it. Some images from the first two days are already on my Site but it will be a day or so until they are all up there - <a href="http://www.duncangrove.com/boat-race-2011">http://www.duncangrove.com/boat-race-2011</a> .</p> <p>Thanks for asking!<br> Regards<br />Duncan Grove FRPS<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.duncangrove.com" target="_blank">www.duncangrove.com</a><br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.duncangroveblog.com" target="_blank">www.duncangroveblog.com</a></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
