Words cannot describe how good the last couple of days have been! I finally found and swam with a whale shark!! Not just 1… but 4!

I set out on a solo tinny mission searching for these guys and while I was out on the water I bumped into a bunch of legends!!cut a long story short for the past 2 days we’ve all been living it up at the reef seeing some of the most hectic wildlife known to man….. how bloody good! 🤙🏽

A big thanks to @will_walton and @tajwilliams for letting me jump aboard!

The unicorn of the Lesser Sunda Islands, finding this Timor python will definitely go down in history as one of my all time favourites!
So stoked I got to share this moment with my great mate @zachark1n on his 30th!

For as long as I can remember I’ve always wanted to witness a Great white shark in all its glory…. Setting out on this adventure I had an idea in mind of the perfect image I’d love to capture…. And this is it!!
.
Over the last few days I’ve
observed 7 individuals around the Neptune islands in both a surface cage and an ocean floor cage. I’ve got such a great appreciation for these amazing animals, they are truly one of the most remarkable species I’ve had the pleasure of meeting!
A huge thank you to Andrew and the team @rodneyfoxsharkexpeditions for the best 6 days of my life! I can’t wait to come back!

Had this Mulga (King brown) stop in for a cheeky camp visit during one of our East Arnhem Land trips, standing next to the boat having a yarn and this fella slithered right past me only about a metre away!
Safe to say he got relocated out of the camp and slithered off on his merry way!

Arguably one of Australia’s most iconic lizards, this beautiful Frilled-neck lizard showing a very impressive threat display to hopefully send me on my way! A few happy snaps and I did just that 👌🏽

On my recent trip up north I was able to capture this shot of a beautiful Red-faced turtle (Emydura victoriae), these guys are quite common in the hot springs where we were searching!

A man, his dog and a crocodile! Life doesn’t get much better 💚

*Disclaimer…This croc was foul hooked by one of my mates and instead of leaving a hook attached we decided to assist in removing the lure, quick pic before release!
