I grew up on a beautiful Greek island and as far back as I remember I was freediving and spearfishing. The deep blue has always been part of me.
Currently in my topside life I perform surgeries for cancer patients and in my underwater life I take photos and videos of the beauty of the ocean. Whales specifically have a special place in my heart.

Ioannis Konstantinidis grew up in Greece freediving, spearfishing, and spending as much time as he could in the "deep blue" ocean. Now, he's an oncological surgeon who still dedicates as much time as he can to being underwater and photographing everything the ocean has to offer, especially whales. Ioannis shoots with the Sony a7R V and Sony 16-35mm PZ lens. You can follow Ioannis on Instagram @yianniskonstan.
