    a rare encounter with a large school of mobula rays in baja, Mexcio. There must have been close to 10,000 of these beauties gathered together for their annual meet up, which is understood to be for mating. i was verey lucky on this day, as the visibility was very good, more importantly the mobulas were very chill, and moving very slowly below the surface. this encounter was almost 4 hours, and i didn't get out of the water once. it was one of my top ocean experiences that i have had so far.
