Whale Shark at Dubai Marina
Junior was taking an afternoon swim at the Dubai Marina during lunchtime... Seeing him was an amazing experience, I believe most of us onlookers wished we could go into the water and swim beside him.
A man climbed over the railing and tried to touch him but he was out of reach, I was running along trying to take as many shots as I possibly could of this beautiful creature and amassed around 41 images!
My day haden't started of well, and yet after this small yet extraordinary adventure, I had hope and was positively energised... today was going to be a beautiful day!
I remembered my dream, the colour of the ray was the same as that of this beautiful creature. You cannot but be amazed by it's enchanting and humbling serenity. Life wasn't all that comlicated, yet we humans seem to have an uncanny talent of creating complexities to no end.
May you, also, have a pleasant and serene whale shark day!

I have dreams of whale shark and I feel an affinity to them, they have a very rare kind of consciousness. It made me feel very good to see these photos, I haven't seen a whale shark in person, only this photo, in the dream I saw the being from a hill, looking down a road, and the beaty of the place and the sun and these giant and compassionate "fish" with consciousness in the distant sea changed my level of compassion. Thank you for posting these pictures and your story.
