Peter's World

"Day At The Beach"

“After realising I needed strong afternoon sun to light these pohutukawa blooms, it took three trips to Matapouri one week to finally strike a fine afternoon. The weather this December was even more changeable than usual & the days that start out clear, so often spoil with cloud later in the day. But my determination paid off with this stunning panorama of Matapouri bay."

“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!“
