Swimming with Manta rays is a surreal experience. They are exceptionally agile for their size and have very few natural predators. They are not afraid of humans and will often swim past you within inches. This can be intimidating at first, given they have a wingspan in excess of 11 ft. If you can hold your nerve, the close encounters make for some incredible photos. This one was only a foot or two away from me when it passed overhead like an angel.
An image by Ryan Sault - A diver, underwater photographer and adventure lover. He has travelled the globe photographing the most incredible and unique marine life and never leaves home without his camera.
🖼️ Edition 1 / 1
🏷️ Collection size: 17
📷 Collection name: Underwater Wildlife
The underwater world is filled with the most unique and incredible wildlife, tucked away beneath the waves, inaccessible to most.
Each species and individual animal has its own personality waiting to be captured.
The environment presents some unique challenges for an underwater photographer. Photo shoots are limited by the amount of air you carry, telephoto lenses are impractical leaving only wide-angle lenses usable.
As an underwater photographer I need to learn how a subject behaves, capture its attention and engage with it in order to draw them close. Staying calm in their presence is a necessity, only then will I have a chance of capturing an image. In this collection are some of my close special encounters which I would like to share with you.
