Five adults and one calf feeding on giant squid photographed by Tony Wu. He said, "It seemed as if the adult whales were trying to teach the baby to dive and also to eat squid."
The pictures were taken off of Japan's Bonin Islands - known here as the Ogasawara Group - which lie about 1000 km south of Tokyo.

Wow. Just: wow.
I think that is the clearest water I have ever seen anywhere outside. Amazing. If I lived somewhere like that I think I'd spend all my free time under the water (instead of on top of it like now).
Actually I wonder to this day if I ever would have taken up paddling if I'd stayed in Hawaii. Snorkeling is so much easier.
30-ft squid. Gosh!
It must have been an incredible experience to be in the water taking those pictures. Hovering there, trying not to look like a squid...
