Wild Ocean Photography

Welcome to Wild Ocean Photography, a library of photographic images highlighting the diversity and beauty of the Scottish marine and coastal environments and their wildlife by Rosanna Milligan. The focus of my photography is strongly on the Scottish marine environment, including underwater images and photographs taken from the surface. All images are available for commercial licencing, or to buy as gloss or canvas prints.

You will also find a gallery of photographs that I have taken while at sea with the Scottish langoustine (Nephrops norvegicus) fishing fleet, which highlights the importance of our marine resources and the need to sustain them. There is also a growing collection of photographs designed to assist in the identification of common British and Atlantic marine fish, shark and invertebrate species.

All images have been taken in the wild by Rosanna Milligan, a marine biologist and SCUBA diver, based in Glasgow on the west coast of Scotland. To keep up to date with all the site information, new photo uploads and general marine biology and wildlife news you can now follow me:
