The Marine Photobank is a leading visual resource that has galvanized people from all over the planet to collect, share and download marine photos, images and graphics that shed light on how humans have affected life in the ocean. The Marine Photobank was founded in response to a lack of readily available, high quality underwater and above water ocean conservation images. These images are available at no cost for non-commercial purposes as well as for media use.

I found them lying outside the freezers at the sharks board in Natal- presumably having been taken dead from the nets." Fiona Ayerst/Marine Photobank
