About Skip's Underwater Image Gallery
Introduction
Skip's Underwater Image Gallery is the personal web site of New Zealand based amateur diver and underwater
photographer, Ian Skipworth.
The Underwater Image Gallery was conceived in July 1996 when Skip
started scanning a few underwater
photos and creating HTML with a text
editor. It's now a repository for several thousand of Skip's images and continues to be added to with content from recent diving adventures.
