Plus de 300 000 cétacés meurent tous les ans à cause de prises accidentelles dans des engins de pêche qui ne sont pas destinés à leur espèce.

Mekan Photography a été nommé cet année, meilleur photographe sous-marin de la conservation marine grâce à cette photographie saisissante :

" Une baleine à bosse meurt d'une mort lente, douloureuse et atroce après s'être emmêlée la queue dans des cordages et des bouées, la rendant complètement inutile. C'est le reflet de ce que subissent non seulement nos océans, mais aussi notre planète, le produit de l'égoïsme et du manque de responsabilité de l'homme. Prendre cette photo a été, pour moi, le moment le plus triste que j'ai vécu dans l'océan. D'autant plus que j'ai passé beaucoup de temps avec les baleines à bosse sous l'eau, que j'ai eu des contacts visuels, des interactions et que j'ai vu de mes propres yeux à quel point elles sont des êtres sensibles et intelligents. Mais je suis "heureux" d'avoir pu capturer ce moment et montrer au monde ce qui se passe, ce que nous faisons. J'espère vraiment que cette image nous sensibilisera, nous ouvrira les yeux et nous incitera à apporter de réels changements."

Alvaro a été d'un grand soutien pour notre programme de photo-identification des baleines à bosse au sein du sanctuaire polynésien. Toute l'équipe de l'association souhaite le remercier et le féliciter pour son travail de sensibilisation à travers ses photographies.

Mauruuru roa Mekan !

📸 & 📝 by Mekan Photography: "Every time I see these beings in the water playing, interacting with each other, enjoying... the same thing comes to mind over and over again. How can we destroy the oceans, how can we pollute them and end up little by little with all their resources. It makes me feel very sad. I truly believe that we can live in harmony with nature, without destroying it, simply collaborating with it. Nature offers us everything we need without asking for anything in return. It is time for us to change, if not, it will be too late. Nature always follows its course, but we are nothing without it."

A picture from my last photo session with at cenote Xulo.

It is without a doubt one of my favorite caves. The formations and textures you can find in it are just amazing.

Of course, if you want to get to the most beautiful places you need to go sidemount!

I don't know if I told you before, but sidemount is not something that I like very much as an underwater photographer. Even so, you have to know which are the best tools for each job and without a doubt, is the best tool for cave diving!

Jellyfish from Raja Ampat!

Isolated in this lake from the rest of the world for thousands of years, these unique jellyfish are harmless and feast upon the algae that grow within the lake.

So yes, we can call them the Vegan jellyfish 🌱

A photo of a natterjack toad I took around this time last year. I only managed to get off a couple of shots before it sank into the pond, and I couldn't frame one of the hands.

Still, I like how the picture turned out!

A little bit of macro today!
A whip coral shrimp I photographed in Tulamben some years ago with my old D7000.
After zooming in on the pictures, I realized this little fella lost one of his claws.
Swipe right to see!

Eye contact!

After the dolphins from my last post passed below, this whale that was swimming behind them stopped in front of me, only a couple feet away. He was observing me and staring at me for a few minutes.
Then they continued on they’re way.

“There’s no question dolphins are smarter than humans as they play more”
-Albert Einstein

A couple of dolphins that passed below me before two humpback whales appeared in the blue.
They were playing together and I can say they where even talking to each other. Then, they watched us for quite long time and disappeared in the blue…
