this photograph was taken,
the manta ray would not have been in the photograph, as it happens the photographer Rusty Escandell
didn’t realize the wonderful coincidence until he got home after having fun
near Officers Club Beach at Patrick Space Force Base, as CNN details:
"I kind
of saw a splash behind the surfer, but didn't think much of it," he said.
"It could have been a fish, could have been anything."
Escandell had taken a burst of photos that showed the ray breaching out of the water, "It was pretty amazing," he said, His daughter and her boyfriend are both marine biologists and said they'd seen some manta rays in the water after he took the photo, Escandell said, Escandell owns an auto repair shop and lives in nearby Satellite Beach, and said he enjoys taking pictures at the beach fairly regularly, He didn't know the surfer in the photo, but they've talked since the photo went viral, "He's excited too," Escandell said, image via CNN, what an amazing piece of luck to press the shutter at that exact moment.
