ocean life!


Session'd today off shore a bit and this 5-6 ft shark jumps out of the water for prey like 25yds in front of me ..cleared the surface by couple feet easy. not sure what kind black tip?? i'll reference later...

and AND new born dolphin being born , a pod was kinda stirring around together and this tiny thing rolls up on its mothers back.

not quite as intense as the whale breach couple weeks back , but all crazy beautiful.

Phree...

I seriously need to learn to get on the water after hearing about your sessions. The things you encounter are amazing. Too many of us only get to see things like this on animal planet or discovery. You are truly blessed man...

Mougl, remember that AJ and Phree in particular are doing things and going places that you and I shouldn't. They have the skill and experience to be safe doing so. That would really add an element to the session to see this stuff up close and personal. Airborne sharks not so much!
