Your photos are amazing! So much is captured in this breathtakingly few minutes of video. I paused several times just to soak in the beauty of the photo before me. I am looking forward to your next video!
i really enjoyed watching. having been to the headwaters of Mississippi i especially enjoyed that. curious, was that the split rock light house? Also enjoyed the loon pictures. took me many years before I ever got to see a real one.
Every one of them a masterpiece! How did you get the pasta to be in black and white, but the tomato in colour? It's a fascinating photo no matter what the technique was. If I ever come into money, I'll buy that Loon. The ripe fruits on the prickly pear make me hungry for prickly pear jelly. The rest the succulent makes me want a cactus pad salad for lunch, or one of the cactus pad dishes I had in Mexico. How did you get the shot of the ship? Were you using a drone, or? It's really cool to see what you've done over 37 years, and it's also good to see that you'ld really matured as a photographer really early on. Or maybe it is just that you were kind of a savant in photography. The eye seems to have been there from the start.
Tomato & Pasta It was sometime in 1982 and I was well into my first year at Brooks Institute. We had been using 4X5 cameras for only a short time. That week's assignment was to create a product shot without brand names, or something like that. Honestly, I do not remember what the assignment was. Anyway, I have been a fan of Edward Weston long before I ever got to Santa Barbara. Particularly of his peppers in black and white. At the time, I could try to emulate his work without copying it. I still like this image, but I don't see the Weston feel I thought I did back then. As was practice with the 4X5, I always exposed two sheets of b&w and two of color E-6 film. Over the years, I have had some of my old film images scanned at high resolution, this is one of those early images. With the scans back I started working on a Photoshop technique I refer to as touch of color. And that is how this image came to be. The ship was in Duluth Minnesota's Ship Canal and I was on the Aerial Lift Bridge, It took a lot of time & special permission to be able to ride the bridge. Thank you so much! Peter
You are definately a wonderful photographer. I just us my iPhone and post my stuff on Viewbug. I am no where near as good as you! Thank you for sharing!!
Thank you so much for your kind words. They mean so much to me. It has always been my goal to place the viewer in my shoes at the moment I made the exposure. My preferred time to photograph is from just before first light until about 1 1/2 hours after sunrise and then from about 2 hours before Sunset until just after the last light. Again if I can be of any help, just let me know. Thank you again!
Stunning. Truly a beautiful experience.
Thank you so much!
You have captured many amazing images. Beautiful scenery! Also loved the beautiful colors in the sky!
Thank you Charles hope all is well.

Thank you so much for your kind words they do mean a lot to me!
Absolutely a beautifully done video. The music was so relaxing, I kept dozing off, and had to back up the video to see what I missed.
Kenny White Thank you so much!

It is a Splitrock Lighthouse. Thank you!
Your pictures are so beautiful. They make me miss Tucson. (The ones from there that is.)
Thank you very much!
