Simply put, Peter Stewart's photography is astonishing. His images, taken throughout China's Guangxi Province, are vivid yet surreal. As a fine art travel photographer, Stewart often captures vast vistas not unlike early American Sublime painters Albert Bierstadt and Thomas Coles.

According to his website, Peter is a self-described "Australian wandering nomad" currently based out of Hong Kong.


"My passion [for photography] has always stemmed from travel and the desire to visit and document all the amazing places the world has to offer. My goal is simply to create images that make you go 'wow'."
