Nigel Marsh is an underwater photographer and photojournalist whose work has been published in numerous magazines, newspapers and books worldwide. Nigel has dived extensively around Australia, especially the Great Barrier Reef and Coral Sea, and throughout Asia, Pacific Ocean, Indian Ocean and the Caribbean.

Nigel’s passion for diving and the marine environment evolved from an early age while snorkeling the beaches off Australia. Three trips to the Great Barrier Reef as a teenager sealed his love for the marine world.

Nigel is very passionate about sharks and rays, and has spent a lot of time studying and photographing these amazing creatures. He has also worked closely with a number of research scientists while producing articles on sharks and rays, and his images have assisted with studies into the population and movement of reef manta rays, grey nurse sharks and leopard sharks.
