Inspiring Change in Whaling NationsWe are committed to peacefully inspire change within countries who continue to hunt or harm whales. We document and communicate whales on their scale, sharing our results with children, adults, and policy makers who have had no reason to be moved by whales or their plight. Our aim is to shift the whaling debate from a heavily polarized dynamic of words, numbers and quotas, to one that encompasses the profound visual reality of the subject whose fate is being discussed; a reality that has been outside our imagination, beyond the effectiveness of words. We invest entire seasons annually with specific whale populations, work at the whales' pace and level of interest, while documenting them with state of the art imaging technology. The results are life-size high resolution photographs that have never before been composed until now. We encourage you to explore the pages on this site and learn more about our upcoming whaling nation exhibitions and our ongoing field work with over five endangered whale species. |
