Getting close to this giant with a fisheye lens is already a recipe for a fantastic image, the angle selected showing the sun beams and the eye contact with the whale makes it a winner.
the Silver Banks are among the best areas to observe humpback whales
one of the greatest moments in my life free dive with Humpback Whales
