Discover the awesome underwater world of Tasmania!

Beneath the waves around Tasmania is an amazing world full of strange seacreatures, colourful reefs, towering kelp forests and some of the most spectacular marine life you'll ever come across.

Beneath Tasmania is my new underwater photography and naturalist book, bringing together years and years of diving, photography and exploring the waters around Tasmania.

From the shallow sunlit reefs and sandy bottoms to the weird and wonderful animals that emerge at night, tiny critters hiding in plain sight and the amazing colourful reefs found down deep, this book is a journey through some of my favourite places beneath Tasmania.

But it's not just a photography book. Alongside the images, I've included field notes from my own experiences, fascinating science, podcast links and the occasional tip on how to find and photograph some of these awesome animals yourself.

I've designed it to feel like a naturalist's field journal, something you can flick through, get ocean art inspiration from, learn a few things from and hopefully take with you on your own underwater adventures.

Whether you're a diver, snorkeller, marine life enthusiast or just someone who's curious about what lives beneath the waves, I hope this book inspires you to get out and explore Tasmania's amazing underwater world.

I’m Matt Testoni and my passion is the ocean!
I love diving beneath the waves and exploring the world below, where amazing and strange creatures live.
I had been diving for over 5 years before I even thought about capturing life underwater. Before that, I would occasionally dive with a common action camera, taking bad videos of playful seals, old shipwrecks, or Grey Nurse Sharks gliding along the ocean floor. To me diving was more about the freedom of the ocean.
It was when I started training as a dive instructor that I bought my first camera, ready for a two week stint working on the Great Barrier Reef. It was a small waterproof point-and-shoot camera with a basic waterproof housing. Taking photos soon became an obsession; a new housing and strobe was added, then a new camera, another strobe, a focus light… Yet, even though my camera collection was growing and changing, it is still the ocean that is my real fascination. Through my photography I want to capture the amazing world under the sea, and hopefully, to inspire and provoke the same feelings of freedom and awe that I get from exploring the world of the ocean.
Currently I use an Olympus OMDEM1 with various lens depending on the situation. I do use the old setup out of nostalgia occasionally.
You can check out some of my photos here, on Instagram, or in the various magazines and publications listed here. If you are interested in my photographic services please feel free to contact me via matt@mtunderwatermedia.com or on the Contact page.
