Captured in the waters of Baja, Mexico, this image reveals a breathtaking phenomenon: hundreds of mobula rays gliding in perfect harmony, forming an endless tapestry of wings beneath the sea’s surface. The photograph dissolves the boundary between sea and subject, transforming the swarm into an abstract, hypnotic pattern of light and motion. In the absence of color, the focus shifts to texture, rhythm, and motion, emphasizing the collective grace of these elusive creatures. A Sea of Rays is both a document of nature and a visual meditation on unity, freedom and the power of the Sea
Colombian biologist, expedition leader, educator and UW photographer. My passion for nature began early and has only deepened with time. Through photography, I’ve found a way to speak for the voiceless, using my camera to raise awareness, educate, and inspire a deeper connection with the natural world. From the ocean’s depths to remote wild places, I aim to tell stories that matter, stories that protect, awaken, and honor life.
