About Peter Zurla

I was very involved in photography in the 70's when it was film and darkrooms. I won't bore you with the details of the last 40 years, which didn’t involve much photography, suffice it to say I AM BACK to photography. The learning curve will be unbelievable but that's good...Keeps the brain working... Never to late to learn.

My interest and love of photography came out of a feeling of very low self esteem. I felt I couldn’t express myself with words so i turned to doing it visually. I can remember vividly what it felt like to watch a photo in the developer come alive. MAGIC. it was a feeling I had never had before. To be able to create from start to finish. Wow. Then as things often do, life intruded. Well… here I am 40 years later minus the darkroom/film but loving the challenge of the digital world. the cameras, the software, etc. are the tools to be used to express my vision of the world and its inhabitants.
