Jem Cresswell has published a remarkable photographic tribute to some of our ocean’s giants, humpback whales titled “Giants“.

His collection of black and white images are dramatic and beautiful. According to Cresswell’s website, he photographed these whales over a three year period between 2014 and 2016 in the south Pacific, during their annual migration to Tonga.

You can’t look at these images and not see the majesty of these magnificent mammals. While you’re at it, set aside a couple of minutes and watch the behind-the-scenes video to see how Cresswell approached his shoots:
