I've just completed my Masters in Marine Resource Management. In the past I've worked as a fisheries biologist, a high school science teacher, and am a photojournalist who writes articles covering coastal conservation topics.

My wife and I are almost to our silver anniversary, and we have a couple of beautiful young ladies.

I thoroughly enjoy seeing the incredible beauty that is captured by so many talented photographers here, and always I am trying to strive for better photos myself. What this collection may lack in polish I think is made up in uniqueness-these pictures represent me and my life, varied and unpredictable, but hopefully interesting and informative.

Comments and criticism are very much appreciated, as I am always wishing to improve!

What a beautiful world we live in...
