In the deep blue waters of the South Pacific, cameraman Marco Queral gets up close and personal with a humpback whale.
'They decide whether I can take pictures of them or not. They must be in a right mood to let me get into this position.'
With a playful flick of his colossal tail Queral could be dead. But instead this curious, intelligent humpback whale takes a shine to Queral, and the two end up drifting through the seas together. The astonishing contact between the 50ft king of the ocean and the minuscule human was captured off Hawaii in the South Pacific last week.
Queral said the jaw-dropping moment was all down to luck, and little to do with the skills he has mastered over 17 years.
