‘Headbutt’ ~ Curiosity Meets Contact
Headbutt captures the breathtaking moment just before a Humpback Whale (Megaptera Novaeagliae) ~ all 30 tonnes of gentle curiosity ~ makes unexpected contact with camera and photographer. With one eye fixed on the lens and its massive head approaching, the whale’s presence is both humbling and exhilarating.
Taken in the open waters of Tonga, this close encounter reveals the intelligent, inquisitive nature of humpback whales. Despite their immense size, they move with surprising grace, often approaching divers with a mix of caution and playfulness.
Headbutt is more than an image ~ it’s an invitation into a rare and intimate connection between human and giant. A split second of trust, awe and pure unfiltered wildness.

"The moment before you're headbutted by the most gentle 30 tonne mammal on the planet ... Pure bliss! There’s a magic in being so close ~ suspended in silence, eye to eye with a creature of unimaginable size and grace." ~ Liam Lynch.
