EYE TO EYE WITH THE WATER GIANTS takes us on a once in a lifetime journey around the world to experience the most revealing, intimate, and honest interactions with the largest creatures on  our earth.

In each episode a team of experts, led by world renowned photographer and expedition leader Amos Nachoum, will set out to a distinct location somewhere in the world's oceans, rivers, and ice masses  with the sole purpose of photographing a specific creature in a way never before taken nor seen. All photographs will be taken in the open water and in each animal’s natural habitat. As a result of  years of observing, learning, and interacting with each of these giants, Amos will first seek out his subject  then establish a relationship of mutual trust and respect, and only then attempt the perfect photograph. And we will be right there with him, witnessing this remarkable and profound adventure as it unfolds!

Each photo will capture the creature in its entirety – its majestic beauty, grace, and essence while encapsulating the true substance of Amos Nachoum's life’s mission. And the mission - to completely eradicate the age old myth of dangerous animals and replace it with respect and understanding of these magnificent creatures.
