Peter's World

"Heaven On Earth"

“Superlatives fail to describe the sheer beauty of the coastline around Great Mercury island, located north east off the Coromandel Peninsula. With waters so clear, Whaler’s Cove is a very sheltered & popular haven for boaties. Add these spectacular pohutukawa blooms in late December & it’s hard to imagine a more beautiful place. Without any doubt, a little heaven on earth!”

“When Peter delivered our pieces, we couldn't believe the incredible detail. The images on his website - impressive as they are - really didn't do our prints justice!“
