When it comes to photography, even Manta Rays have their comfort level. This video was taken in The Revillagigedos Archipelago, also known as the Socorro Islands. The diver in question would like to remain anonymous (he's trying to stay on good terms with Mantas). Manta Rays are being hunted for their gill rakers - which is thought to clean blood when consumed by humans. Groups such as www.mantarayofhope.com are fighting to protect this graceful creature.
