Australasian Marine Photographic Index

Established in 1968 the Australasian Marine Photographic Index is a unique, ambitious, far-reaching project aimed at establishing a photographic inventory of the entire aquatic natural history resources of Australasia and the Indo-Pacific.

The index is the largest scientifically curated visual aquatic wildlife identification system in the Southern Hemisphere. It contains over 150,000 individual transparencies with data covering basic aspects of aquatic natural history, including habitats, associations, prey and predator relationships and mating behaviour of over 12,000 species of animals and plants - the majority of which are cross-referenced with identified specimens housed in State museums.

Original collections made by hand since 1963 have been housed in the following scientific institutions amount to over 15,000 lots.
Australia Museum - Queensland Museum - Victorian Museum - Western Australian Museum - South Australian Museum - Tasmanian Museum - Museums and art galleries of the Northern Territory.

Photojournalist Services
(Travel - Tourism - Eco-Tours)

As the most published marine photo-journalist in the Indo-Pacific Neville can create emotive, targeted and factual photo-journalistic articles on almost every subject to do with the aquatic environment. Travel-based promotionals, eco-tourism, dive resort profiles, live-aboards and semi-scientific natural history studies are all part of a responsive, efficient photo-journalistic service.

With 150,000 stock shots, an excellent range of photographic equipment, the highest professional qualifications and experience gained over 30 years of photographing and writing about the environment, from aerials to underwater, he can provide a service second to none.

(Over 100,000,000 printed reproductions in colour).
