Just takes my breath away, so beautiful

"There are some breath-hold dives where the experience is so mesmerizing I completely forget about the burning sensation in my lungs.⁣ ⁣ This was one of those occasions.⁣ ⁣ As the whale song of a distant male reverberated through my body, this devoted mother humpback basked in the warm waters off the coast of Tonga – patiently waiting for her baby to grow, and building strength for the long journey back to their feeding grounds in Antarctica. I bid a silent farewell before gently floating to the surface so as not to disturb them."⁣ ⁣ Video was taken on assignment for @SeaLegacy in Tonga under Special Interaction Permit (Regulation 13) from the Ministry of Tonga.⁣ ⁣ #humpbackwhale #tonga #whale #limitededition #mother #calf #gratitude
