Models have swam underwater with whale sharks in the Philippines.
Hannah Fraser and Roberta Mancino swam with 30-foot-long whale sharks in Oslob in a bid to raise awareness of the sharks which are often victims of poaching.
Photographer Kristian Schmidt also swam with the sharks to capture the extraordinary photographs, a project which required four months of planning.
Photographers tracked the whale sharks down using knowledge of the Philippine locals.
Locals have developed a bond with the animals and local fisherman often feed them handfuls of shrimp, which aided in attracting the whale sharks to the location of the photographers.
