Framed limited edition prints.

NEW WAYS OF DISPLAY IMAGES.

Please do contact me about any questions or to discuss your own preference with any print. I will also supplying work to order. However due to the size and nature of photographic material it is not possible to supply unframed photographic prints, I therefore now offer a range of other option. Prints start at £75.00. Signed Limited editions prints also have a letter about the picture. I do supply larger images as well as more than one print per frame. I am happy to also offer inkjet prints up to 1 meter wide. These are posted out in a rolled and can be sold as a print only, reducing the cost to you as well as giving you fuller control over the finished picture.

As each picture is done to order, I am able to make every reasonable effort to supply each to the client's own requirements. i.e. signed or not, title, as well as size.

Please confirm price at time of order and as almost all are supplied to order, I ask that consideration be given to this, and please allow up to month for an order. I am happy to take requests for more urgent orders and of course will make every effort to help or answer any questions

Photograher from the blue, Ed Whiting.

I have been diving and taking underwater photographs for a number of years. This has meant that I have been very lucky enough to travel to some of the remotest parts of the world. Sadly it is becoming apparent that the effects people have on the land extend to the sea and it is only with knowledge and education that this destruction can be controlled.

I have been to Myanmar twice in the last five years. From the moment you enter this country you have the feeling of going back in time. I'm not saying this is a backward country just that there is a whole different pace and set of priorities there. The unfortunate thing is that catching up with the western world is a high priority due to the assumed wealth and happiness. Items that we take for granted like fridges and plastic are entering Myanmar at an alarming rate, but as we are learning to our cost in the west, this progress comes with a high price.

Divers or tourists rarely visit the Andaman Islands and therefore there are very few photographs of the area. This trip was undertaken as I have a passion for seeing and photographing places that are intact and reflect a part of the world, which remains in its own time. My aim is to build a large portfolio to convey the waters around the world. More recently I traveled back to the southern Red Sea. This has to be one of the most dived seas in the world. In the years that I have been diving, I have seen the decline in these waters; I am concerned for the long term. I question if my children will see these wonders when 80 percent of the world's reefs are in the worlds most populated areas.

I started by taking photographs on land so when I started diving I wanted to take photographs underwater. I now try hard to do both as I feel it is as important to see the people and places in order to understand the underwater environment.

I sell limited edition print, posters and cards through my own company, from the blue. My hope is to be able to spend more time, in more places, in more countries taking photographs. I want to be able show, or remind others of the beauty, as I truly believe that the growth in population, as well as pollution, is changing our planet.
