“There are so many things about the ocean I love.
It is relentless and unforgiving, powerful and destructive.
However, when you explore the underwater world everything feels calm.
Perhaps it is the silence, or the pressure building when you need to take a breath.
It could be the way the light dances.
Then, a 12 meter mammal looks you in the eye and your whole world changes.”
