I've been fortunate to have orcas approach me while filming underwater on many occasions, but this was the first time I'd ever had a large male get this close to investigate. I sucked in my stomach, pulled my housing tight to my body, and lifted my fins so nothing would touch him as he cruised within two feet of me. He swam past us four times as I blindly snapped off shots with my ultra-wide 16mm lens–it was pure luck that I managed to capture this image. I never felt fear, only appreciation of experiencing something this rare. Follow me @PaulNicklen for more opportunities to stare directly into the souls of our precious planet's most fabled creatures. #Whale #Orca #KillerWhale #Dolphin #Journey」9月24日 3時43分
