Article Summary:

Underwater photographer and Wetpixel co-administrator Alex Mustard has finally made public the release of his first book, The Art of Diving.

Alex writes: My first book, The Art Of Diving, has just been published. It is 272 pages long and contains 200 images, all mine except three that were taken by an “Eric Cheng”, who some of you may know. The book costs £20 and is just going on sale in the UK, with releases in other countries and languages planned for the rest of the year. It is a large format, soft back book (to keep the price down and hopefully make it sell well).

It is a book about scuba diving and is a collaboration with author Nick Hanna - who did the words (I did the colouring in). Hopefully both the images and the text provide a fresh look at diving in 2006. It features Giles “supermodel” Shaxted on the cover.
