Peter Lik - Peles Whisper
Fine Art Photograph by Peter Lik.
The feeling I had on this early morning is hard to describe. As I hiked out under moonlight over the smoldering crunchy
lava, an eerie electricity filled the air and I couldn’t help but think that something momentous was in store. It wasn’t until
much later that I realized what may have been responsible for that feeling. A mate of mine informed me of the story of
Pele, the Goddess of Fire in Hawai’ian folklore. A volatile and, at times, vindictive goddess, Pele took pleasure in her power
to both destroy the land and also create it. Legend has it that she and her sister Namaka-o-kaha’l, Goddess of Water and
Sea, constantly sabotaged each other causing Pele to move down the island chain before finally claiming the Mauna Loa
mountain on The Big Island. You can visualize her fair profile in the upper left-it’s as if she is blowing, or whispering, into the
ocean causing the steam to part on the surface of the water below. I get chills every time I look at it. It’s my shot of a lifetime.

Peter Lik - Ghost
Переглядів 6 тис.2 роки тому
Fine Art Photograph by Peter LIk. The biggest lesson I have learnt in photography is that timing is everything. No matter how perfect your technique and equipment, if you aren’t in the right place at the right time you simply wont get the shot. In the underground sandstone caves of Antelope Canyon, in summer I knew the sun would pass directly overhead at midday. As the time approached giving me...
Peter Lik - Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona
Переглядів 4,8 тис.3 роки тому
It’s the granddaddy of American landscapes - and no photographer has mastered it like Peter Lik. Even if that means, literally, shooting “From the Edge.” It’s a risky business but one man has to do it. See the canyon-like you’ve never seen it before - through the lens of the world’s greatest landscape photographer. A spectacular episode 17 million years in the making.
Peter Lik - Waiakea, Hawaii
Переглядів 2,1 тис.3 роки тому
The gods of Hawaii are still very much alive and Peter visits the Big Island to meet up with three of them: Pele, the goddess of fire; Wakea, the sky father; and Lono, the god of the plains. But calling on the gods uninvited has its challenges, including a face-off with an active volcano. But it’s all about getting the shot... no matter what.
Peter Lik - Yosemite Falls, California
Переглядів 2,8 тис.3 роки тому
America’s favorite national park is filled with photogenic scenes. But the best shots mean getting off the tourist track and shrugging off comfort and safety. Be with Peter when he uses the light of the “Magic Hour” to bring to life Yosemite’s most amazing features as he pursues his next gallery shot. And get reintroduced to an American icon - by another American icon.
Peter Lik - Glacier National Park, Montana
Переглядів 6 тис.3 роки тому
Peter leaves his cowboy hat at home and favors a ski mask as he heads to Montana in the heart of winter. In conditions that would drive an Eskimo indoors, the Master Photographer treks through frigid landscapes - and even scales a 400-foot frozen waterfall - to capture the unique beauty of Big Sky country as the mercury plummet.
Peter Lik - California Coast

It’s a 400-mile run down California’s ultra-scenic Highway 1, from Point Reyes to the Channel Islands, as Peter explores America’s western edge. The coastal landscapes are a photographer’s paradise and Peter draws on all his know-how to capture their beauty and iconic quirks. Hit the highway with the Master Photographer for a road trip to remember.

The Camuy Caves form a cavernous netherworld unique in nature. And it’s just one of the breathtaking sights Peter explores on his maiden visit to tropical Puerto Rico. Secluded beaches, lush rainforests, and misty heights are all on the menu as the Master Photographer takes aim at this gem of the Caribbean. It’s paradise uncovered
Peter Lik - Page, Arizona

They’re marvels of the American Southwest, eons in the making: the hidden canyons. The mammoth symmetry of Horseshoe Bend, the dangerous beauty of subterranean Antelope Canyon, and the unique grandeur of Mountain Sheep Canyon and Labyrinth Canyon. Ride with Peter as he goes over, under, down and in for spectacles of nature like you’ve never seen.

Peter Lik - Olympic Peninsula, Washington

Olympic Peninsula, Washington. Long after the last tourist has left, Peter journeys to the wild Northwest to photograph the majesty of Olympic National Park in Washington. Going from sea to sky, and battling the elements every step of the way, he shows that beauty often comes amidst rugged coasts, rough seas, and extremes of weather. But it’s all in a day’s work for the world’s most famous land...

Jurassic Falls Kauai, Hawaii. Steven Spielberg filmed there for both “Jurassic Park” and “Raiders of the Lost Arc.” Now take the ride with Peter Lik, the Indiana Jones of photography, as he visits the Hawai’ian island of Kauai and the most beautiful waterfalls in the world. It’s a hunt for natural treasures to rival a Spielberg epic!
Peter Lik - Arches National Park, Utah
Переглядів 5 тис.3 роки тому
Some of Peter’s most stunning photographs have been of natural arches. He heads to Utah to visit the most spectacular arches in existence, including Mesa Arch, Stevens Arch, and the incredible Double Arch. The grueling hikes are well repaid when Peter captures some shots of a lifetime and proves himself to be an arch hunter extraordinaire.
Peter Lik - Northern Alaska
Переглядів 2,5 тис.3 роки тому
The Northern Lights are one of the most spectacular, and unpredictable, natural phenomena a photographer can pursue. So it was an Alaskan quest that Peter couldn’t resist. It doesn’t get much remoter, colder or simply fascinating than a visit to the wilds and far-flung outposts of Alaska in winter. Especially when you’re traveling with Peter Lik.

    So sad. My father and his brothers started logging in the 70’s and my grandmother was livid.Those were ‘her’ tree! She tried to teach them to respect the land. I hope they didn’t clear cut- but I remember watching a tree fall. The cracking and the explosion when it hit the ground sounded like war. I will never forget that sound.

    As much as I don't like Peter's marketing and such, I have to give a lot of credit to the crazy Aussie when credit is due. It is hard to believe those shots are taken out of body, but IF they are then good job Peter. It is actually very inspiring to see your take on simple subject matter. In the metro shot under City Hall, I thought you were going get have that catch light with dust as the subject, but you did a nice long exposure to light up everything. A different take on what I thought you were going to do and it worked out nicely.
