Freediving with Orcas in Norway // Stories from the Field

Every winter the Arctic fjords of northern Norway welcome the ocean’s apex predator, the orca. Many witness these animals from the comfort of a boat, but photographer Jacques de Vos plunges into the cold, dark water in an unwavering pursuit to experience and capture their lives under the waves. While fulfilling a childhood dream, his work continues to support conservational efforts to protect these orcas by sharing his images globally and advocating for the only local full-time research group, the Norwegian Orca Survey. This episode of Stories from the Field follows his journey and takes a closer look at the story, dedication, and equipment it takes to photograph and film Norwegian orcas in their natural environment.
