 Jamie Watts is a marine ecologist, illustrator, expedition leader and naturalist guide ([click here](http://jamiewatts.co.uk/)).  After two years with the [British Antarctic Survey](http://www.antarctica.ac.uk/) he has spent five southern summers aboard ships in the Antarctic Peninsula area.  Jamie has kindly allowed depictions of his water-colour paintings of albatrosses to be used for conservation purposes by ACAP.  His albatross posters, as well as ones covering marine mammals, fish and squid, are professionally printed on high-quality A3 satin matt photo paper and can be ordered via his [web site](http://jamiewatts.co.uk/).  Posters are printed from 12 to 20 megapixel, hand-produced originals and are mailed in a tube.

 He writes to*ACAP Latest News*: “Albatrosses remain under serious threat, although heroic efforts from a few have slowed the impact of fisheries on some populations.  [World Albatross Day](https://acap.aq/en/world-albatross-day/introduction-to-world-albatross-day) aims to celebrate the exquisite beauty of these animals, and remind us to work harder to bring them back from the brink.”
