View the online version   Mantas in Socorro Oceanic Mantas, like this one near Socorro, usually display curious behavior with divers. Don’t swim towards the animal when you want to photograph it, but rather wait until the Manta comes on its own - as they almost always will. An image of the front is usually the better angle to capture these beautiful and magnificent creatures. The iPhone’s 0.5x wide-angle captures the entire Manta at a close distance.

The available ambient light came from the back of the liveaboard. Wait until the animal is fully illuminated to get the whole-body view into the image. Be steady, and take several shots with the phone’s wide angle lens.
