Career of the Month
Sullivan features underwater photographer Flip Nicklin. For over 30 years, Nicklin have been a photojournalist for National Geographic. Although he have covered studies of bearded seals, polar bears, and sharks, his focus is whale studies. Moreover, during his last year of college, he traveled to Africa for a diving job and never returned to school. Then he worked as a diving assistant on a three-month National Geographic magazine shoot. Some of his photos were published in the magazine, and the rest is history. With his passion for animals, science, and diving, whale research photography was--and is--the perfect fit.
