code Peter's view is that "while a photograph, in theory, provides a "realistic" representation of a subject, the actuality is that there are many ways in which the photographer influences that representation, and a photograph can be just as much a personal interpretation of a subject as a painting, drawing, or sculpture." Peter's show is a selection of digital photographs which he has individually customized using a variety of software programs. Peter's serious involvement in photography began in the early 80's. "I became intensely involved with photography throughout this period, built a darkroom in a closet of my house, and divided my attention between large format nature/landscape work and 35mm urban explorations, all black and white. I attended the Ansel Adams workshop (on a scholarship) in one of the last years he was active. I had several one-person shows in North Carolina, including Two Views of the World at the Durham Arts Council and another at a gallery in Chapel Hill. I participated in many juried shows and won awards in some. I also sold photographs through an agency in New York City."
