Whale-derful Family Reunion - A Silhouette Surprise!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this breathtaking print by Francois Gohier, we witness a magical moment in the vast waters of Vava'u, Tonga. As the sun sets over the South Pacific, an adult male Humpback whale takes center stage, showcasing its majestic silhouette against the golden hues of the sky. But wait! Look closely at the top of the image – barely visible is a heartwarming surprise - a mother and calf duo! It's as if these incredible marine mammals decided to photobomb their fellow humpback superstar! The bond between mother and calf is beautifully captured in this rare shot, reminding us of nature's wonders and tender family connections. These endangered giants are part of a larger community that spans across oceans. They belong to the rorqual whales family and are known for their baleen plates used to filter-feed on krill and small fish. However, today they take some time off from their busy schedule to enjoy an underwater swim together. This photograph serves as a reminder of how precious our marine ecosystems are and why it's crucial to protect them. So let your imagination dive into this enchanting scene where love meets wilderness; where gentle giants share moments beneath azure waves; where beauty unfolds with every ripple.
