Finalist Fine Art Photographer of the Year
Isoon Tepsaskul Baja California Sur, Mexico
A fever of mobula rays stirs up the seabed. “Mobula rays are incredibly sensitive to movement and sound,” explains Tepsaskul. “Opportunities to swim with them like this are rare and is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience for me. After about half an hour of swimming with these beautiful creatures, they quietly disappeared into the big blue. It was like being in a dream.”
