"Peter's
stark,
sere images, whether of the high
desert, the high Sierra, or of a
thousand-year-old lodge pine
effortlessly take one on a
journey through space and time.
It’s not just the subject matter
that calls to mind Ansel Adams’s
work. It’s the timeless, limitless
clarity of the images themselves
that create that sense of awe and
humility about the planet we live on".-Alexander
L. Aldrich,
Executive Director,
Vermont Arts Council
 Peter
has a great love of trees
and vintage autos that
often figure prominently in his
images. He
predominately works in Black and
White, and his prints hang in private
collections and galleries throughout
North America and Europe.
For 25 years, Peter
worked throughout the US and Europe
as a commercial
and auto racing photographer
with numerous clients
and publications. He followed
with an exploration of
cinematography, and became a
respected director of photography.
Over the past
eight years, Peter has
returned to his roots and his love
of the still
camera, concentrating on fine
art BW work.
Some of his influences include Ansel
Adams, Galen Rowell, Helmut Newton,
Herb Ritts, and Weston.
"I love
working in classic black and white.
Taking the impact of color away from
an image breaks it down to the true
tonal range and invokes in me a
sense of depth and clarity. I find
it intriguing to study a subject to
find whether I can remove the
color’s emotional impact to achieve
that elusive sense of wonder and
depth, yet still inspire a profound
connection to the viewer by making
my prints come alive as much as
possible."
