Peter Stock's photography collection
Welcome to my "Exhibit" of photography. I am based in Calgary, Alberta and  engaged in producing excellent and representational photographs. If you are here to look around, please leave a comment. Thank you.

About my photography, I thrive to achieve truth through photography. By that I mean there is no alteration of the material portion of the picture. There are certain techniques used to highlight the important aspects, I make good use of editing. However, the main effort goes into capturing the images and the context they were taken in. I find Alberta's sky is a wonderful background and use it prominently in many of my photos.  The process leans heavyly on Ansel Adams "The Making of a Photograph"

To purchase or licence a photograph please email me with your wishes.

To retrive or copy any of my images my writen permission is required. The images may not be altered for any reason whatsoever. Images maybe purchased by e-mailing me and giving me details such as use and distribution information.

1. Portfolio  (2011)
This is my portfolio, pictures that truely represent my skill and direction.  The pictures have all been chosen to show how I capture the world around us and what I find beautiful and interesting to the eye. Every photograph is preplanned, where does the light come from? How do I want this to turn out? Good planning is part of the process, good post editing is necessary. It all starts with the vision that I have for every image. Can I be of help to you?

16. Alex & Mir  (October 2011)
Photo shoot of my son and his lovely partner. These two are very talented. I am very happy the way it turned out. To set the mood we started with a bit of champaigne and started with some warm up poses. I had to do very little directing, most of the poses they volunteeered.

Airshow excellence

Lethbridge Airshow,

excellence, just as these pilots are excllent at what they do, so do I thrive to produce the highest quality.
No more unplanned photos or exposures, no more winging it, from now on the shutter release will only be pushed once I am sure the results are going to be excellent.

Babies
38. Babies  (2010)
Nests with eggs and chicks that I discovered. I don't know where my photography will take me, but I hope that someone will enjoy it. Taking a canoe to a wetland and taking pictures requires certain skills that I had to learn over the years. The light is seldom ideal and the wind will allways make your shot difficult.

A few years back I took a river canoe course at the University of Calgary Outdoor Ed. department. The skills learned are very important to understand my canoe and how to steer it in windy conditions.

Going out in our Canoe takes us into this small environment where nature still rules. Although there are a few fools with power boats, the lake is not yet overrun by holidayers. Many birds and even otters can be seen.
