📷 OneBreathOnePhoto #6 - ONE photo of ONE moment on ONE single breath of air
Hello dear Steemian friends! Welcome to the 6th episode of:
#OneBreathOnePhoto
As some of you may know, two of the things that I'm deeply passionate about besides travelling, is Freediving and Photography. Freediving is a practice of diving underwater without a tank or any other breathing apparatus, gliding through the watery abyss on a single breath of air with nothing but you and nature.

GEEEEEZZZ to me that photo would require an immense amount of courage. Love the shot, sweet!
Thank you @flybendor, actually the whales are super gentle creatures and most often they are the ones running away from us, so it was more of a game of patience :)
beautiful shot! I love the style of splitting the shot and getting above and below the surface at the same time. How close did you get to the whale?
Thank you @fiftysixnorth, coming from you I'm very flattered! I was probably about 10m away I would say, nothing is close enough when you have a 16mm fish eye pointing at a whale :) Though the whales do get really close in Tonga!
Now I'm flattered! :) 10m sounds pretty close to me! Keep up the great work! Looking forward to seeing more :)
This is a pretty cool shot!
Check this out!
Thank you so much!! @daveks!! I really appreciate your support!! Seriously thank you!
Just pointing a spotlight where the spotlight should be pointed!
Your welcome
Really nice photo!

Breathtaking shot!
Upvoted and following you to return for more.
Thank you @sandzat, and you too! all the best!
Wow great shot...upvoted, resteemed and followed
Thank you so much! Much appreciated!
@keunok, this is a fantastic shot and so under-appreciated. This experience must have been incredible, being 10m away from such a magnificent creature must have felt pretty special.
Thank you @munchell, those words means a lot to me, and fuels me to keep going :)
Yes it's definitely one of the most amazing experiences i've had in the ocean, their presence and energy kinda sucks you in closer, it's really strange, like an invisible force that pulls you in! no joke!
That must be an amazing feeling to be that close! Brilliant photo @kuenok, well done!
Thank you @colmedwardsphoto, yes it's an incredible feeling swimming next to a whale, sheer power and size!
The colors and clarity in this are absolutely amazing! Well done. Extremely professional
Thank you @kristin.nova, much appreciated!
great shot of that whale! :D
Thank you @sulev! Coming from you Im flattered! And congrats on the #bwohotocontest! Amazing macro of the butterfly, or was it moth?
