| Bio
Peter F. Dendrinos is a native of Traverse City, Michigan. From an early age, he has been exposed to the beauty of the Northern Michigan wilderness through camping and hiking experiences. He has been behind the camera and in the darkroom since 1977. His interests have taken him through photojournalism, portrait, studio stills, and landscape. Over the years, he has worked in color, black and white, 35mm, 6x6 and 4x5. All this work has been created in his own lab. Today, with a renewed interest, he primarily focuses on black and white landscapes. Creating beautiful prints, for an ever-growing clientele.Peter divides his time between the lab and being out in the field. Always searching for that unique shot, he often finds himself well off the beaten path. Peter's primary focus is, "Untouched by man's hand". That is to say, he tries to capture the beauty of the land with out the distractions of power lines, radio towers, mailboxes road signs, and other man-made objects. CREATIVE STATEMENT: "I enjoy the natural beauty found in the landscape, the play of light and shadow within the trees, and the quiet solitude of a pond or river. I try to capture that sense of wonder and awe that we all feel when we first lay eyes on nature’s infinite beauty. " "I primarily focus on landscape elements that show no sign of being manipulated by man. Of course, there are many unique and interesting subjects to study and photograph and new ways of offering them to the public. My approach over the years has been mostly traditional concerning equipment and methods; applying the philosophy and techniques taught by the masters before me. Recent advances in digital image capture have led me into this medium, applying the same fundamentals as before has led to a whole new way to deliver the images I see in my mind when I snap the shutter." |
