The portfolio of digital photographer Pete FourWinds.
Thanks for stopping by my portfolio. I've only recently picked up photography (late 2006-early 2007ish), but I'm quickly learning the craft and finding my artistic vision. Without question, I'm interested in hearing from more experienced photographers...constructive criticism, tips, thoughts, encouragement, etc (in that order - I'm finding the critiques to be my best friend in learning photography).
NAVIGATING MY PORTFOLIO (for the benefit of visiting non-PBase regulars):
There are no single images on this main page (each image opens a full gallery), nor will you find any sub-galleries in this portfolio. Each gallery on this page is presented "as is," and individual thumbnails in each gallery open up to larger photos. I just find it easier to navigate, and I hope you do too. All galleries are found below my artist's statement.
ARTIST'S STATEMENT AND DISCLAIMER:
I welcome any and all viewers to enjoy my photography, however, some galleries may or may not be suitable for everyone (particularly in the future as this portfolio grows). Any galleries containing artistic (or any other kind of) nudity will be clearly marked as such, and I leave it to you to decide whether to view them or not. I'm a lifelong opponent of censorship (in fact, a future gallery will explore that very theme), so don't expect to find any password-protected galleries.
If you're easily offended, feel free to enjoy my other galleries. In addition to the freedom to choose what photographs, movies, games, books, or music we do and do not view, watch, play, read, or listen to, I strongly believe in being fully informed before making that choice. Please, enjoy my work, comment on it, teach me, learn from me, gain whatever you will from my portfolio (short of stealing my photos themselves), but please click only those galleries you're sure you want to see.
