The 29th annual Toowoomba Mayoral Prayer Breakfast on Tuesday, 9th May, 2023 is shaping up to be another great event as we welcome Ken Duncan OAM as this year’s guest speaker.

Mr Duncan, who describes himself as ‘an average photographer with a great God’, will offer an insight into his successful photographic career and how nature and Australia’s wild landscapes have shaped his life and faith.

Mr Duncan, is a pioneer in the field of panoramic landscapes and limited-edition photographic prints, which have captured the rugged beauty of Australia’s often isolated locations and wildlife.

Lauded as one of Australia’s most iconic image makers, Mr Duncan’s travels have allowed him to capture equally stunning images on assignments across Europe, the United States, Asia, Africa and the Middle East.

He has completed projects for National Geographic, The New York Times and Rolling Stone magazine along with work for corporate groups and other organisations.

Mr Duncan has worked with World Vision to document the group’s efforts to improve lives in developing countries. He has produced two books to aid World Vision’s fundraising.

Through his Walk a While Foundation, Mr Duncan loves to spend time working with Indigenous youth in remote Australian communities.

The Foundation helps to empower Indigenous people to tell their stories through creative arts.

The charity beneficiaries for this year's breakfast are Adapt Mentorship and Civic Assist.
