I'm an amateur photographer, although I'm often put aboard research vessels as "official photographer" (amongst other duties).

I like taking photos mainly of wildlife and landscapes, with macro being a particular interest.

Will hopefully be getting into underwater photography on expeditions in the near future.

My photographs are mainly used by the African Coelacanth Ecosystem Programme (http://www.coelacanth.ac.za/) in their brochures and reports.

You can see more of my pictures at

I'm quite happy to have other people using my photos as long as they tell me and give me a photo credit in the publication. It's even better if I get a copy of whatever it is :D
Larger version of the images are usually available on request :)
