Just something to relax to. Every time I go out to film or photograph the beauty around the place, I take a second camera or put up the drone to capture some scenes. Here's just a quick collection of the beauty of Malibu, CA. Enjoy! Relax, and let me know if you'd like to see more footage like this!

In this week's video I share some incredible scenes of great white sharks in the surf zone. We also examine why they are there to begin with. Additionally, we examine vortex trails and explore the fact that great white sharks can and do get a tan. Here's a link to my Patreon if you'd like to support more content like this.

This is PART 2 of my expedition to the San Ignacio Lagoon in Baja California, Mexico. While the lagoons are the only place on Earth where Gray whales approach you, on their own accord, I went on a quest to find sharks as well. In this episode, I find a shark nearly 14 miles into the lagoon. And it's a shark I've never seen before! Special Thanks to Baja Expeditions & Nautilus for this magical opportunity.

In this weeks' video I share another typical beach scene from Southern California. These are merely observations remember. Once again, a great white shark comes very close to surfers that have no idea it is there. However, now there's a trend. People are now recognizing the drone signals a shark is nearby. Instead of avoiding the area, folks are now approaching the sharks by looking for the drone. DISCLAIMER: I'm NOT a marine biologist.

Recently, I was invited to San Ignacio Lagoon in Baja California, Mexico by my friends at Nautilus Liveaboards and Baja Expeditions. While the lagoons are the only place on Earth where Gray whales approach you, on their own accord, I went on a quest to find sharks as well. This is part 1 of that quest. It's safe to say, the whales took the spot light! Special Thanks to Baja Expeditions & Nautilus for this magical opportunity and to Allie Vautin for filming me on the boat!

In this weeks' video I share another typical beach scene from Southern California. A shark comes very close to two surfers who have no idea it is there. We also examine the extra two senses great white sharks possess and explore a recent study suggesting that sharks may navigate using Earth's electromagnetic field.

Gray whales are among a host of marine mammals that display affection amongst all of their kind. These two gray whales appear to be displaying mating behavior. At the very least, courting behavior. These are merely observations. DISCLAIMER: I'm NOT a marine biologist. As with all YouTube content, I encourage independent verification of facts via official scientific and trustworthy sources.
