Picture of a school of tuna
December 9, 2012 1:27 PM
Where is the picture that the diver in this photograph was taking? Any ideas?
I read this question to mean: "this photo portrays a diver taking another photo. Is there anywhere we can see that other photo?" IE, not the photo of the diver, but the photo of the fish that diver was taking.
Am I reading this wrong?

I think it is here
Found by googling the location and the name of the photographer (and friend) from drpynchon's link.

This is fairly close, but is unlikely to be the exact photograph--it was provided by Photographer 1 (Octavio Aburto), not Photographer 2 (David Castro).
However: David Castro, and the Castro family more generally, seem to be extremely invested in the Cabo Pulmo area, and David seems to be a regular dive-guide in the Cabo Pulmo area. Your best bet may to be to contact him at his Facebook account (I'm reluctant to link it, but if you search 'david castro cabo pulmo' his facebook account is one of the top results) or here, which has a few photographs of shoals of fish taken on dives, but nothing like the photo you want, but which also has an e-mail for what are probably his employers.

It's video, not a photo: https://vimeo.com/55506438
Thanks to drpynchon for finding the original, and to flifla for asking the question on the NatGeo site.
