ナショナルジオグラフィックさんのインスタグラム写真 - (ナショナルジオグラフィックInstagram)「Photo by @paulnicklen | My eighth assignment for National Geographic was a behavioral piece on one of the fastest fish to ever exist in our oceans: the sailfish. Written by Jennifer Holland, "In the Whirl: Sailfish" was published in the September 2008 edition. The biggest challenge was to shoot a full-length feature in only 11 days. When you're short on time in a demanding and competitive job, little voices of doubt sneak in and start to tell you that you're going to fail. At the time I wondered: how could I ever pull off a story in 11 days? It seemed absurd. A typical assignment length was anywhere from 50 to 80 days. Fortunately, we had an amazing team for the sailfish piece which made it possible. My buddy Goran Ehlme and I put our heads together with local fishermen and our wonderful Mexican guides and managed to produce a small feature story with only a few good hours of lucky shooting.
