This is Shamu, a killer whale that is the newest show attraction at SeaWorld in San Antonio, Texas. I was fortunate enough to talk to one of the show guards and she allowed me to get as close as possible to the trainers... only when she's not looking. :D Thank you very much for viewing.

    Nice one, jiro! I like the different shades of blue and the texture in the water. Let me know next time you come to SA--would enjoy going out to shoot with you. A few others around in SA and Austin too.

    Really nice image...what an opportunity. Like everything about it. Love the water's luminescent quality. Color is way cool.

    Thanks for sharing.
