About George Perina

(photo by Mark Hollister)

I live on the Gulf Coast of Mississippi, and have been an active SCUBA diver for over 30 years, and has logged several thousand dives.

My images have appeared in ISLANDS, SPORT DIVER and South Mississippi Living magazines. A life-long love of the ocean compelled me to pursue a degree in marine biology after leaving the army.

I am a web designer, photographer, and computer consultant. Though web design and computer consulting occupy most of my time, my true passion is photography. Currently I have authored 9 Nature calendars, 5 of which feature marine life.

I've also written a dozen articles, taken 17 cover shots, as well as photographing over 500 magazine assignments. My work has appeared in photo guides, text books and advertising campaigns.

My other site, Life In The Seas, features many of the marine life images in the calendars pictured above, as well as a complete guide to digital photography.
