A curious baby humpback swims by me on the way to get a breath. The escort male is just visible behind momma. Despite the protection of the adult whales, two orcas killed and ate the baby the day after this photo was taken.

American crocodile swimming in a cenote on the edge of the Sian Ka'an Biosphere. Shot around midnight during nesting season. Had to blaze a path through jungle to access this small, wild cenote. Hardest entry/exit of any dives I've ever done.

Magical shot showing the ocean's most majestic creatures and making us all jealous :) The ambient light here worked perfectly and the colors are deep and precise. Clear winner!
