Against a beautiful winter backdrop, this orca came swimming towards us in the Norwegian fjord. Its huge dorsal fin was very impressive and the warm orange colours in the sky reflected beautifully on the wet fin. National Geographic selected this picture as one of the photos of the day. Orcas are beautiful animals!

Lived in Amsterdam, but decided in 2018 to pursue his dreams. Currently lives and works in Tonga where he works for a whale snorkeling operator. Favorite are mainly wildlife photography with a great passion for whales and tigers, as well as photographing people and "life". Can wait hours for that one shot, and then wait another day for a better shot. Has a very long and extensive to-do list of places to visit ;-)! Thank you very much for your interest and who knows, maybe a work of mine will soon be hanging on your wall.
