What a bummer this must have been: You’re looking for a sea monster and you find a bunch of golf balls.
Golf balls: ‘Humanity’s signature litter’ - CNN.com (via heyitsnoah)
I never understood how soulless humans could hit golf balls off the backs of cruise ships, which was a common practice for years, with the excuse that the ocean is so big it won’t make a difference. This anecdote is no less poetically tragic on a smaller scale.

Take a minute…breath deep, relax and enjoy this full screen. I’m glad something like this is in Japan. Its ironic that this country still practices the barbaric act of whale hunting. When we see the oceans, we have little or no concept of the beautiful life that swims beneath. We are so separated from the reality, in the same way that watching the news of war on TV fails to stir us to act.

Incredible video of the world’s second largest aquarium, the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, in Japan. This was captured on a Canon 5DMKII with a 28-135mm lens. Watch it in full screen and be mesmerized.
