21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Omura Whale
Omura whale is the last specie of whale discover by Japanese scientists in Madagascar in 2003. At Madagascar you are not allowed to swim with whales in water so I asked to put my camera from the boat platform underwater. By luck, it was a lucky strike the Omura whale came in the camera field. It's a rare underwater shot of this specie. In fact it's a half luck cause I have made lot of tests to be ready to put my camera from the boat. The only fact I cannot control is the place of the animal in the frame.
