Petar Sabol ‘Sharpeye’ rođenje 1981. u Čakovcu. Fotografijom se počeo baviti 2007. Od samoga početka svojega fotografskog rada očaran je prirodom i njezinim svijetom, pogotovo područjem makrofotografije. Osim prirode, profesionalno fotografira i prigode poput vjenčanja, razne proslave i javne događaje, komercijalnu fotografiju.
Njegove fotografske slike prikazuju i dočaravaju trenutke iz života prirode koje je većini ljudi teško ili gotovo nemoguće vidjeti u stvarnosti zbog sve većega otuđenja od prirode. Zahvaljujući vrlo predanome i sistematičnome radu, bilježi nevjerojatne kadrove u kojima je glavni kompozicijski sastojak najljepše prirodno svjetlo. Tim idealiziran]'em ljepote prirode zauzima svoj čvrsti pozitivni stav prema ljepoti i čudesnosti prirode.
Od početka 2012. do danas sudjelovao je na mnogim međunarodnim izložbama umjetničke fotografije pod visokim patronatom FIAP-a (Fédération Internationale de l'Art Photographique) čak 343 puta.
