Nature Picture Library: celebrating Britain’s wild seas with Alex Mustard

The waters around the British Isles are amongst the richest in the world. Our seas and coastline support a wealth of amazing wildlife, which is the focus of the latest book idea from Nature Picture Library.

Find out more in our Britain’s Wild Seas blog, featuring images by leading underwater photographer Alex Mustard and other NPL photographers.

To explore Alex’s work in more detail, check out the updated Alex Mustard gallery on our site and his new prints gallery, which both feature his work from British waters and around the world.
