David O’Connor is a brand new photographer that had a huge success in securing amazing footage. Armed with nothing but a drone and a love of nature, he filmed a whale and its calf simply hanging out in the warm waters of the Indian Ocean.
He sent the drone up to take a look around after spotting something out in the water. Although he didn’t know it at the time, he was about to capture the footage of a lifetime. This happened just days after the 39-year-old quit his full-time job in the oil and gas industry to follow his dream of nature photography. Based on the video above, I would say he made a good
call.

The pair of whales was just 200 yards from Waterman’s Bay in Perth, Australia. O’Connor had this to say about the experience, “It was just an amazing sight and a great reminder of the kind of natural beauty with have on our doorstep. It was incredible, I just wanted to share it with people so I gathered around the people on the beach to watch it too.”
Definitely an amazing sight, maybe one day we will all be lucky enough to witness an event like this one in person.
