Description
I was in the kingdom of Tonga, observing and swimming with the majestic humpback whales. That day we found a settled mother and calf. We quietly entered the water from a good distance and swam slowly towards them, hoping not to disturb them. Eventually the calf came up for air. He was a very young calf, his skin was still white and very smooth. I am convinced he had never seen people before because he kept coming really close to us. It was very playful, often rolling around
