A six meter whale shark swims just outside Hanifaru Bay of Maldives remote Baa Atoll
A six meter whale shark swims just outside Hanifaru Bay of Maldives remote Baa Atoll, August 10, 2011. Every year, hundreds of whale sharks and giant manta rays gather for their annual feeding frenzy of plankton in July and August, in the geologically unique Hanifaru Bay. For reasons of conservation, Maldives is likely to shut down Hanifaru Bay to divers, making this the last season divers can see this one-of-a-kind phenomenon. Photo taken August 10, 2011.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this breathtaking print captured by David Loh, a magnificent six-meter whale shark gracefully glides just outside Hanifaru Bay in the remote Baa Atoll of Maldives. The image transports us to August 10,2011, when this awe-inspiring creature was spotted during its annual feeding frenzy alongside giant manta rays. Hanifaru Bay is a geologically unique location where hundreds of whale sharks and mantas gather each year to feast on plankton. However, due to conservation efforts, it is likely that the bay will soon be closed off to divers, making this particular season the last opportunity for divers to witness this extraordinary phenomenon. The photograph showcases the sheer size and beauty of the whale shark as it swims effortlessly through crystal-clear blue waters. Its close-up view allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of its exterior and marvel at nature's creativity. This image serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our environment and protecting these incredible creatures. It captures a moment frozen in time – an encounter with one of nature's most majestic beings in its natural habitat. With no people present in the frame, we are left alone with this wild animal against a backdrop that highlights both tranquility and power. This photograph truly encapsulates the wonders that lie beneath our oceans and invites viewers into an underwater world filled with wonder and amazement.
