Daniel Browne, Pregnant Manta (SINGLE SHOT 2021)

Working with manta rays on the Ningaloo is something I will never tire of. This year I was lucky enough to come across a huge, heavily pregnant female with an entourage of juvenile golden trevally. You can tell this lovely lady is pregnant by the huge round back, a manta rays gestation is 13 months, hopefully we see a little manta soon.
