In this 10 minute mini documentary, Thurston Photo takes you on the experience of a lifetime; swimming with the gentle giants of the sea in the beautiful archipelago's of Vava'u, Tonga.
In "Tonga" Thurston tells the story of what it felt like to be that close to a wild humpback whale, and annotates on their beautiful nature and kind-hearted instincts.
The clip is full of beautiful aerial images of the tropical Islands of Vava'u and underwater ballet from the beautiful humpback whales that migrate their each winter season to breed, give birth and nurture their young.
Captured primarily with the Canon 7D Mark II. Aerial footage captured with the DJI Phantom 3 Advanced. Additional footage shot on the GoPro Hero4 and Canon G7X.
