About the Author

Darius Turner is a landscape photographer based in Sydney, Australia. His images have been captured on adventures across the world and reflect his passion for finding new places and sharing new experiences. Darius has a particular fondness for the ocean and enjoys photographing seascapes both at home in Sydney and in his travels to beautiful destinations like Samoa, Zanzibar, Fiji and Tahiti.

With a great love of the outdoors and wildlife, Darius sees photography as a way to get close to nature. He believes that the beauty of the environment should be shared and uses his photography to tell the story of each place he visits. He has spent periods of time in Uganda helping to refurbish a school and has cycled 800kms across Thailand to raise money and awareness for orphans of the Tsunami. He sees these experiences are a way of connecting more closely to the locations which he photographs.

Darius enjoys teaching beginner photographers both in groups and one on one and has experience formally teaching in a classroom setting. With a bachelor degree in Media and Communications from the University of New South Wales and studying a Masters of Commerce degree at the University of Sydney, Darius hopes to use his studies to bring his knowledge of photography to as many people as possible.
