Love at first roll
Witness that in person at Hanifaru Bay, in the Maldives is pure magic.
Mantas like the interaction with divers and they can come close. To have an animal that size, that close is an easy way to understand how connected we are to the ocean and its creatures.
Over the past centuries all the mysteries and lack of knowledge about what is that huge mass of water that forms our planet, humanity get distanced from the seas. And with that distance we still have hard time to love and protect not only the waters but also the animals that lives in there.
My goal is to bring part of the ocean to the people, and I use my photos to do that!
