Because the Cape fur sealis common off the coast of Southern Africa, there are “thousands of pictures of them, all more or less the same,” says Peschak. He set out to show something specific: that these seals love leisure time. “They go out surfing for hours and hours on end,” he says. To photograph this, he had to wait for a day when the waves wer...
In most places where Peschak dives, the marine life is afraid of him, so he has a hard time getting close, as everything swims away. That’s not the case in Aldabra, a remote marine reserve in the Indian Ocean. Here, Peschak got up close and personal with Bohar snappers, which can grow to be more than two feet long. “These fish are quite curious. Th...
Most people have seen photos of a humpback whale’s tail. “But they’ve never looked into a whale’s mouth,” says Peschak. This image was the result of months of work with scientists who study whale feeding behavior off the coast of Canada. “They bubble-net feed,” says Peschak. “A pod of five or six whales swim under a school of herring and release a ...
In Hanifaru Bay in the Maldives, the monsoon winds of the summer and fall push nutrients to the water’s surface. Manta raysmigrate here to cyclone feed on the zooplankton. “In a DNA helix-like column, the mantas swirl in tight formation, creating their own vortex that delivers plankton right into their cavernous mouths,” says Peschak. “You can have...
Every year, sardines migrate north along the coast of South Africa. As they swim, dolphins break up the party, isolating big groups of fish. Bronze whaler sharksseize this opportunity. “They rush in, like an industrial-strength vacuum cleaner and hoover up fish,” says Peschak. “I remember this one shark turning around and rushing past me with all t...
“Sometimes I come across a scene that’s just quiet and peaceful,” says Peschak. “To me, it looks like these starfish are holding hands and crossing the road.” Sadly, there’s a dark side to the sweetness of the image. “This species of starfish is being wiped out by a wasting diseasein the Northeastern Pacific,” he says. “A virus is believed to be th...
Peschak captured this image of polka-dotted whale sharksoff the coast of Djibouti in Africa. Fisherman here go out at night, with lamps hanging off their boats to attract plankton and fish. “The whale sharks follow behind, hoovering up plankton,” says Peschak. Photographing sharks with only a thin beam of light is eerie — but also magical, and surp...
Malgas Island in South Africa is “like a busy airport,” says Peschak. That’s because it’s a sanctuary for Cape gannets, which fly out to find food and then return to the nest to feed their young. “Hundreds of birds come in at the same time, but there are very few midair collisions,” says Peschak. “The birds fly in holding patterns.” The birds circl...
Did you know that sea turtlesneck? Peschak discovered this while photographing in the Europa Atoll, a sanctuary between Madagascar and Mozambique where turtles meet up to mate. Peschak had seen male turtles on top of female turtles, hanging on for hours. “Turtle mating is a lengthy, rowdy affair,” he says. “But I never quite knew how the male turtl...
“This is a very old way of fishing using only homemade goggles, a hand spear and kerosene lamps,” says Peschak of this photo of a lantern fisherman in the Philippines. “At night, this fisherman drags his boat looking for fish, octopus and crabs.” In the five hours Peschak spent with him, the man caught three fish — all the size of a finger. “The sa...
