A night of beauty in the Magical Maldives. This night I met Manta Rays for the first time. I watched them move and dance under the light, feeding on the plankton, swooping, looping... mesmerising me with their perfect grace and beauty. Then I pulled on my fins and mask, slipped into the warm water and spent hours joining in the dance... wishing the night would last forever. Full article will be published in the Divesite coming out this month, so sign up for this excellent mag, go to www.divesite.co.za Thank you to OK Maldives for being our gracious hosts, for the perfect liveaboard holiday, see www.okmaldives.com I hope you enjoy this little moment, for more of my work, please visit: www.hanliprinsloo.com
