Peter and I (L. Chrystal Dmitrovic) attended the same
junior high and high schools many moons ago. Although we never officially
dated, we danced together once or twice at Sadie Hawkins dances. (We
were in the same class for three consecutive years.) In high school,
because of our last names and alphabetical composition of "home
rooms", we were not in the same class per sae, although happenstanced
together depending on the courses.
One such grade 11 course was Choir, led by the inimitable Mr. Bennett.
Peter and I sang memorably in a choral performance of "The Messiah" at
Seneca College in Toronto.
Choir field trips to Europe (which my parents did not allow me to
participate in), were perhaps where Peter first found his love for
international locale and had the opportunities to pursue his then
hobby of photography. He was also a member of the high school photography
club helmed by "Mr. O". (I attended one meeting of the camera
club and found that it was an all-male bastion, so declined future
meetings.)
Life took its unique paths for each of us. I went off and got married
and dallied in journalism, photography and art. Peter became a professional
photographer and has worked for numerous Canadian national newspapers,
travelling the world for his assignments and freelance pleasure. He
has also been featured in the highly respected specialist publication
MAGAZINART. Check out the links below to Peter’s websites
