ABOUT US

Marine Wildlife

Marine Wildlife is a specialist image library which provides images of marine wildlife species, marine and coastal habitats, coastal scenes, usage of the sea and coast, marine pollution and other marine-related issues in both temperate and tropical seas.

Marine Wildlife was established in 1990 by temperate underwater photographer Paul Kay, and is now expanding - by both extending its geographical coverage of the images and by representing other photographers too.

Our images

We pride ourselves in offering high quality images and ensuring accurate captioning and identification of the marine wildlife species and other images available through our library, drawing on our own experience (as well as that of our photographers) in marine biology, marine natural history, marine conservation and marine resource management

Our images are carefully selected and optimised prior to being included in our library. However, depending on the final printing or other output stages they may need small adjustments in order to match their technical parameters to those required by the outputting system (printing press, etc.).
