My soul is in this photo. It emanates letting go, joy, connection and love. To this day it will be one of the most special photographs I've ever taken as it combines two of the most beautiful animals on the planet. Freediving on a single breath 30metres through the darkness for this brief moment of magic. Where the natural light pierced into the depths. I've been trying to replicate this same photo since, but to have eagle rays move in different directions like in this photograph is rare. Let alone to have a turtle in the middle, as eagle rays will rearly let anything close other then fellow rays. Burst into tears when I surfaced. At a time in my life where I felt lost this helped me find myself again and reminded me that without rain there is no rainbow.
