'Orcas predating a thresher shark'
Rafael Fernandez Caballero

We were looking for cetaceans and pelagic life in the Cortez Sea, close to Cerralvo island (la ventana), when we spotted a group of Orcas, when we jumped with them we saw that they were predating on a thresher shark, something that hasn't been seen much, indeed an interesting behaviour to see. After a few minutes with them they left with their prey. It was a crazy experience.

Judge's comment: What makes this so dynamic for me is the sun shafts which have a sense of illuminating the stage It's a particular moody and sad image all at the same time.
