Archipelago Images is a website dedicated to showcasing wildlife, landscape and underwater photography. The images on these pages all have one thing in common. Whether it is Ambon or Fiji, Seychelles or Sulawesi, all of the photographs were taken on or in the waters surrounding islands.

Islands hold a special place in our lives, for travellers they offer a form of escapism, while for many cultures and religions they are important sites, home to sacred temples and churches. Many of the planets greatest wildlife oddities are found on islands, with evolutionary isolation leading to all manner of forms. Often species poor, susceptible to extinction, but high in endemism, islands offer scientists a window into a living laboratory and have provided insight into much of what we know today on the subject of evolutionary biology.

Archipelago Images offers a glimpse of the amazing diversity of fauna and flora found on islands around the world, with a strong focus on environmental and conservation issues. Please take a moment to view the galleries and read through the blogs and articles, which are updated regularly.
