Dive Log Australasia Editor and underwater photographer Mike Scotland will be focusing on helping people develop a greater appreciation of sharks when he takes to the Photo Stage at the GO Diving Show ANZ in September.
Mike started diving in 1976 and successfully gained his PADI instructor rating in 1982. As well as teaching more than 1,000 divers. Mike has done 7,000 dives and won awards for his U/W photos.
His two main passions are underwater photography and marine biology. He writes about the celebration of marine life combined with adventure diving. Mike published his book, Marine Biology in the Wild as a service to divers who want to learn more about the sea. It features postcard standard photos with in-depth research.
He will be signing copies of his new book, Diving with Sharks – the Marine Biology of Sharks in the Wild, which is all about the marine biology and lifestyles of sharks based on diving with them for 48 years.
