After a successful win at the 2010 Windland Smith Rice International Awards for his image Ghost, Peter’s haunting piece was subsequently selected as part of a 2011 exhibit at the Smithsonian Institution National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C. This world-famous photograph was taken at one of Peter’s most beloved locations: Antelope Canyon, Arizona. As incoming sunlight illuminates the underground canyon, a ghostly aura is created.
Following the success of Ghost, Peter garnered another Windland Rice win in 2011 with his masterwork, Inner Peace, one of the Master Photographer’s most awarded pieces. This majestic vision of a Japanese Maple was also selected as part of an exhibit at the Smithsonian in 2012.
