I got to swim with a whale shark! It was pretty amazing swimming with this giant, calm creature in his environment. Taking a photo of the entire shark was almost impossible in the murky water. By the time I swam far enough away to capture his 20-foot + length, I could hardly see the creature through the murky water. So, I did my best to swim like mad, aim for the head and stay out of the way when that giant maw came my way (which happened a couple times).
