“Indonesia... Land and Ocean of smiles”. Interaction between whale sharks and local fishermen in Papua Indonesia. Smiles above and below the water. I didn't know what to expect when I travelled to Papua. Even though I live in Singapore this took 3 flights and 24 hours... A number of whale sharks have learnt to feed from the nets that hang from the traditional fishing platform bangka at night. For several months a year they are joined by small groups of divers. The whale sharks also feed naturally in the bay. Photo location: Cenderwashe Bay, Papua, Indonesia. (Photo and caption by Tracey Jennings/National Geographic Photo Contest)
