Tara Noble-Singh

… is a passionate diver and award-winning underwater photographer who has recently featured in National Geographic. Raised in Scotland & India, it is Asia that has become her spiritual home and a place of endless fascination. Her passion for marine life has led to an in depth knowledge of the sea and a superb portfolio of underwater images.
“For me coral reefs are a source of almost endless fascination. They are home to an incredible diversity of shapes, colours, patterns and textures, from which to draw inspiration.
My underwater journey began in 2001, from my first dive I was amazed by the spectacular variety of tropical marine life and enthralled by the freedom of movement you experience while diving.
I was quickly drawn into the world of underwater photography as a means to record the amazing life I witnessed and an attempt to create images that do justice to the breathtaking world beneath the waves.
Despite its many difficulties and regular frustrations, or perhaps partly due to them, underwater photography tightens its hold on me with every photo I take. I am addicted to the constant challenge of trying to capture the reef’s intricate patterns, vivid colours, graceful movement and spectacular light within a single beautiful frame.”
