Humpback Whale Turks and Caicos

[StringSymmetry]

You are blessed to have had this experience.

I can never quite tell the scale of these. I often wish I would see a diver right next to it to get a better idea of the scale.

I filmed a couple of Southern Rights some months ago but the footage is not nearly as good as this. Well done and thank you for posting this.

[warllenduarte]

maravilhoso, espetacular essas criaturas marinhas,

[sweetcoolstuff]

Love this video

Do you think that the whate was sleeping?

I am in awe of your experience!

[TWind]

Wow, this is some really nice and clear video footage, especially from the point where you were at. Filming the whale from underneith instead of on the surface makes it look as though its flying above you, its great.

[TWind]

Did you swim close by it? I think I would have, then I'd die happy.

[Scubaturtle]

I spent 45 min alone with this whale underwater on scuba.... I'd say the closest I got to him was 5 ft from his eye!!! At the end he swam directly over me, makes you realize how small you are in their world!!!!

[TWind]

Heh, I can tell. :]

[MaxiCosi07]

[sablechicken]

How magical. I't like a dream, and you watched him for 45 minutes? What a blessing you have shared, thanks

[AnimeCanuck]

Beautiful. Thanks for sharing. ^_^

[noddegamrashadow]

Beatufil animal. It's a shame we're poluting our oceans and causing animals like these to go extinct. Exelentjob getting so close and capturing this gorgeous whale on video. T-T

If you mind me asking, what type of camera were you using? The quality is exelent and it's definetly not one of those cheap looking water proof ones. ^0^

[willkill8]
