  20. Lamprey, Sharks and Rays (Marine Animals by Panini), Part 6

    Back with the last post of the Panini marine animals, this time we’re getting into the not-bony fish, jawless and cartilaginous fish. Most excitingly, it includes one of very few lamprey figures! Which is my way of saying that this one figure was primary the reason I picked up this set. In retrospect, probably the only for me (collectors’ mileages may vary). Let’s take a look! And see if it was […]

  21. @scubahanknyc I am so glad to be browsing on the Fediverse & discover your posts on Wordpress, especially given a shared love of whale sharks: what wonderful footage!

    However I'm seeing unclickable links & black boxes where previews should be, so instead of boosting I will highlight posts by replying with a link to your original article: scubahanknyc.com/2025/08/30/up

  22. There is something so fundamentally wrong with Israel and it's propaganda machine.

    They have slaughtered almost 100 thousands innocent civilians, they have gang raped hostages to death, they have shot babies in the head over and over again, but they have the audacity to post such disgusting tweet about starving Palestinians eating a stranded whale shark.

  25. 🐋🐠 Whale vs Whale Shark: Completely Different Creatures

    It may come as a surprise, but whale sharks are not whales at all.

    Whales are the ocean’s largest mammals, while whale sharks hold the title of the ocean’s largest fish. 🌊 See attached.

  26. Majestic Giants of the Philippines: Whale Sharks in Oslob

    In the coastal waters of Oslob, a giant emerges — the whale shark, the ocean’s gentle wanderer.

    Oslob is a small coastal town in the Philippines. Fishermen lure young whale sharks close to shore by offering handfuls of small fish. These encounters have made the town world-famous. They give divers and snorkelers a rare chance to see the largest fish in the ocean up close.

    https://www.youtube.com/shorts/XKj6DR19rW4

    Reaching lengths of up to 12 meters, whale sharks hold the title of the largest fish in the sea. Despite their massive size, they are filter feeders, living on plankton, tiny crustaceans, and small fish. When they feed, their cavernous mouths open wide. They draw in thousands of liters of water. This water passes through specialized gill rakers. This ingenious system allows them to extract even the tiniest morsels from the sea.

    Each whale shark carries a distinctive pattern across its back and sides. The white spots and stripes form a natural fingerprint, unique to every individual. Researchers use these markings to identify and track them, building a global picture of their movements and migrations.

    The practice of feeding whale sharks in Oslob draws them closer to shore than they might otherwise swim. For many visitors, this creates unforgettable encounters. It offers a chance to look into the eye of a giant. Visitors see their gills working in detail and understand their size from experience, not from a book. At the same time, these encounters raise important questions about tourism and conservation. How do humans interact with such extraordinary creatures?

    Behind the Film

    This short film was a project close to me because it was my first trip to the Philippines. I shot the original footage on a GoPro Hero 4 in 2015 during my dives in Oslob. Today, on International Whale Shark Day, I revisited the footage and edited the video in Final Cut Pro. The background music was composed in Logic Pro, and the narration was created using ElevenLabs’ text-to-speech feature.
