This photograph was captured after braving a gale force storm in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Being out at sea for multiple days at a time is always a humbling experience. Never have i felt so small and insignificant, but also totally at peace with myself.

A group of 6 souls including myself were conducting whale research aboard The Odyssey, a 30 meter steel sailboat, when we were hit by a freak storm containing winds reaching up to 50 knots. Luckily there were only a few minor injuries. This photo was taken after everything calmed down and it was safe to freely move about the boat again.
