There is a whale called Z who has been returning to Okinawa every year for the past 30 years. He is a famous whale that makes me want to meet him someday. At the end of a season, Z was perched quietly, which was unusual. Our eyes met underwater. The Z confirmed my presence and slowly turned to face me. I regretted the nature of being a photographer when the moment I had dreamed of came...

The first photo book by freediver Ryuzo Shinomiya, who photographed humpback whales in the waters around Okinawa for 10 years. A new frontier after retiring from competition.
