Your one stop shop for everything photo-video
Good photos come to patient photographers who wait for the perfect moment. And sometimes, you’re just lucky to be in the right place at the right time. Amateur photographer Carly Adams was both.
While photographing a humpback whale a few days ago, the magnificent animal treated Carly with a move she hadn’t expected. It breached close to a nearby boat, and Carly managed to take the shot of the moment. She shared her photo with DIYP along with some information on how it was taken.
Two kayakers were enjoying the day along with other people, fish, whales, and birds in Avila Beach, California. They were watching humpback whales feeding when one of the whales scared the hell out of them: it almost swallowed them! One of the women filmed the whole experience, and it looks pretty scary. But when you look at it from the side, it’s even scarier.
The underwater world hides many wonderful creatures in its depths. Australian photographer Jem Cresswell is particularly fascinated with humpback whales, and he documented their beauty in a series of intimate black and white portraits. His series “Giants” took 3 years to complete, and it captures these “gentle giants” in the southern Pacific Ocean around Tonga.
The artistic set of portraits will get you closer to these wonderful creatures. It will help you dive into their world, get to know them, and see how powerful and amazing they are.
What better way to test out your new Sony A7’s low light abilities than with the stunning scene Northern lights photographer, Harald Albrigtsen, was lucky enough to come across.
