Hello, my name is Peter. Thank you for visiting my Gallery. I hope you find something you like. I have had a passion for photography since my mid-teens when, inspired by the work of Ansel Adams, I bought the original Olympus OM1 SLR. That camera survived several trips to the Himalayas and other places with nice hard rocks, but a few years ago I converted to digital photography, retaining my trusty OM1 for slide work.
