Inspirational (Ocean) Quote

Quote by Robert Wyland

This is my second submission for the 3 Day,3 Quotes Challenge as invited by Life of Mon, the first submission was posted in Inspirational Travel Quote.

Most of my travels was exploring beneath the ocean by scuba diving. The wonderment of the ocean where unique species exist as part of life circle never ceases to amaze me. Whale shark was one of the unique species. It was one of unforgettable moments to swim so close with the whale shark. The image was taken in the Philippines, it was my first time trying out split underwater photo: half above water, and half underwater.

Robert Wyland is a marine life artist who presents the beauty of the ocean through his art. His 100 Whaling Walls mural paintings in several countries have created the public awareness of the marine life struggle in our ocean. I am not lucky (yet) to seeing the whales during my scuba diving travels. Since the ocean is vast and often unpredictable, I hope I will be able to see at least one of Wyland’s Whaling series instead.

  1. So true! I remember someone said that life in the land is from the sea, so I conclude that the most original form of life, hence the wildest, is under the sea, too :)). Ah, it must be very interesting to witness these forms underwater, I wish I could see it, too :hehe.

    • Gara, you visited so many beautiful beaches – just snorkeling around and I am sure you will see interesting marine life – I was snorkeling when seeing this whale sharks 🙂

      • OK, I’ll make sure that I prepare everything to snorkel on those beautiful seas, Mbak :hehe :sikap.

  2. Wow! Not only did you have a split between ocean and air, but your scaling was terrific, too. I loved that the fish (are they pilot fish?) were between you and the whale shark.
