UNDERWATER PHOTOGRAPHY

My underwater galleries for my photography of this format. They cover many areas and locations as well as subjects. I spent a considerable amount of time culling to the images I most enjoy or found difficult to shoot. These days I really only do my underwater photography on the island of Bali as I spend quite a bit of time there but I have many images from southern Western Australia where a lot of my earlier photography took place. Also I have some gallerries of warmer places to the north of Australia which include Exmouth, Rowley Shoals and the wreck of the Yongala in Northern Queensland.

WELCOME
to my photography portfolio. I put this site together to highlight the many different aspects of my photography. These include images photographed in environments from the depths of the ocean to the hillsides of Western Australia or may capture the intimacy of a lost moment. I feel that a photograph can be interpreted in any number of ways by any number of people and this site is my interpretation. Photographers that I have met and those who I would like to meet have inspired many images found in the galleries on this site."
