Jomtup Charoenlapnumchai says:

I had been at sea for 10 hours looking for the whales. It was raining and cloudy. Everything was quiet and there were no whales. When I was leaving, the rain stopped, the sea calmed and this Bryde’s whale appeared near my boat. It was a special moment. The sea was calm, the light was perfect and I hardly used any special effects. I was trying to get the camera as close to the sea surface as possible. Bryde’s whales are eating small fish by opening their mouths to let the fish in. And use the baleen to filter the fish. I took this image in the shallow waters of the Gulf of Thailand (Samut Sakhon Province in Thailand). The background is a tall building located in Bangkok, the capital city of my country.

I have been interested in nature since I was a child. At the beginning of my photography when I used my father’s camera to shoot insects, I saw insects in a new way. They are very interesting creatures. Then I kept taking pictures, from photographing insects I started taking pictures of birds and mammals. For me, nature is attractive. Just an ordinary animal, it has an interesting story and point of view.
