Description My first time ever seeing a whale shark^^ They are absolutely massive! This big girl i believe is the largest at the Aquarium at 25 feet!! And she's still growing!

They were difficult subjects due to their size, the glass and that they hug the surface. One did swim at eye level later but she was just too big to capture properly.

I love how you can't even see it was taken at an aquarium. Very beautiful composition as well.
