Photographed in Lembeh Strait, Indonesia, this tiny clownfish hovers within its anemone host — a complete underwater world small enough to fit into the palm of my hand. Using a super-macro setup, I focused on texture, repetition, and colour at an intimate scale, revealing a scene that might easily be overlooked. In the ocean, the smallest spaces often hold the greatest complexity.

I am an award-winning underwater and equine photographer based in the UK. After a successful career as a City stockbroker, I now channel my passion into capturing the beauty of marine life and the spirit of wild horses. My work has been widely published and exhibited internationally, earning recognition from major competitions including Underwater Photographer of the Year and Ocean Geographic.
