Description
A photographic celebration of one of nature's most majestic creatures.
Over a five-year period, photographer and filmmaker Jem Cresswell took more than 11,000 images of one of nature's largest mammals, the humpback whale, in Tongan waters.
In Giants, through a powerful combination of photography and storytelling, Cresswell selects the most striking of these images to document the extraordinary bond between a mother and calf, a singing male humpback suspended vertically, upside down, with its head almost touching a steeply sloping reef, and much more. Cresswell's body of work offers an intimate glimpse into the lives of these 'gentle giants' as they complete their annual migration to Tonga.
