Half of the fun of filming whales are the people you meet and the adventures you have along the way - like getting almost bounced out of the boat motoring through reef passes in French Polynesia! Stream "The Witness Is a Whale" at Spindriftimages.com to watch the full film. #whales #humpbackwhale

Whenever we dive with & film whales they seem to have an amazing innate sense of their size, and spatial relationship to us. Often curious however, they frequently get very, vey close....this sperm whale did push the envelope a little...#whales #whale #spermwhale #spindriftimages

Cheryl getting up close & personal with a sperm whale - they are without doubt the most alien looking of all of the whales we have filmed. Their perspective of the world is almost entirely through sound - I wonder what they think of us trying to keep up underwater. #whales #spermwhales #conservation

Every day in or on the water is a good day! Earlier this year snagging a few nice ones in Indonesia #kassiasurf

That great feeling when the boat skipper yells: "go now - whale under the boat!" and you don't really believe him....but there really are sperm whales...Cheryl Dean having a good time. #whales #spermwhales #conservation

Diving with and filming whales is an amazing experience…I am always left in awe…Southern right whales off Argentina. #whales #rightwhales #conservation
