A snorkeler swims towards sperm whales diving into the deep blue sea off the coast of

A snorkeler swims towards sperm whales diving into the deep blue sea off the coast of Mirissa, in southern Sri Lanka, March 29, 2013. The southern tip of Sri Lanka, where the deep waters of the continental shelf is close to the shore, is one of the few locations in the world to see dolphins, whales and other creatures of the deep. Since the end of the 25 years civil war in 2009, tourists are returning to the island to enjoy its natural beauty and catch a rare glimpse of the elusive whales. Picture taken March 29, 2013.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this breathtaking print captured by David Loh, a snorkeler fearlessly ventures towards the majestic sperm whales as they gracefully dive into the deep blue sea off the coast of Mirissa in southern Sri Lanka. The southern tip of Sri Lanka boasts a unique geographical feature where the continental shelf's deep waters are remarkably close to the shore, making it one of the world's few locations to witness dolphins, whales, and other mesmerizing creatures from the depths. After emerging from a 25-year-long civil war in 2009, Sri Lanka has once again become an enticing destination for tourists seeking natural beauty and rare encounters with elusive marine life. Against a serene underwater landscape, this wide-angle shot showcases an unrecognizable human figure swimming alongside these magnificent wild animals. The image encapsulates both power and tranquility as it highlights not only nature's grandeur but also our harmonious coexistence with its inhabitants. With no people present in this picturesque scene, we are reminded of how insignificant we are compared to the vastness of our environment. As climate change continues to threaten our planet's delicate ecosystems, images like these serve as poignant reminders of what we stand to lose if we do not take action. Through creative use of composition and lighting, David Loh captures not just a moment frozen in time but also conveys an atmospheric sense that invites viewers to appreciate both the beauty and fragility inherent in nature.
