Peter Lik sees nature through different eyes—those which haven't been distracted by the modern world. He is often described as the most important landscape photographer alive. And, his singular journey has led him from the rugged outback of his native Australia to the heights of fine art photography. He attributes all of his success to Mother Nature—the only place he truly finds peace.
Long celebrated for his vast panoramic landscape photographs, which capture the brilliant colors and spiritual terrain in nature, Peter Lik received the highest award—given by his peers—the Master of Photography. He is driven by an extraordinary passion that few men possess—at its core is lack of time, a finite number of sun rises and sunsets. His mantra: one shot. He lives it every day of his life.
In his unending quest for the perfect shot, Peter Lik travels the globe to places that few humans have seen, driven by a vigorous determination to capture the extraordinary beauty of nature. And, as Mother Nature herself—he is entirely unpredictable. If you get out there to some of those far off places—sometime around dawn or dusk—you might just witness Lik framing his one shot.
