Whale Watching

Friday people day and today's photos are a collage of photos I took a few days ago when we went up to Boat Harbour to do a spot of whale watching.

The top left shot is of David (on the left) and a friend of ours on the right.

There were quite a few whales travelling up the coast from Antarctica for their annual migration to give birth in warmer waters. They do the return trip around September time.

you got such good photos - i am now suffering either 1 - lens envy or 2 - whales in closer than they were for me envy - or both - great shots!

Fab shots Babs. How brilliant to be able to see them.

A wonderful set of shots telling the story -- beautiful blue sea and the camera men and whale ! Like Annie --I am also envious !

What a fabulous experience, a memory for life and a great collage to remind you

Awesome collage and captures!!

[Sally Ings]

Some fabulous sightings. Love seeing whales along the coastline.

@annied I took these photos with my Lumix so nothing exciting. David and Trevor have the 'big guns' Can't compete with them. Can't carry the weight either. Buggers my neck.
I think the whales were about 70 or 80 metres away from the rocks.

@onewing I might have to head up there during the week :) they were a good distance out where I was

[Hazel]

@sioux @beryl @pixiemac @karlow75 @chrysanthemum @koalagardens @gilbertwood @gigiflower @thistle @2nutsinatree @salza @quietpurplehaze @bkbinthecity @my_photofun @craftymeg @kwind @tonygig @dolphin @happypat @mittens @eyesmile @taffy @pcoulson Thanks everyone, we are so lucky to be able to stand on the rocks and watch the whales swim by and just for good measure we get to see them travel back down the coast again in September as they head back to Antarctica.
We do occasionally go out on the whale watch boats, but just as good to see them from the land.

[Jane Morley]

We have dozens of shots of whales that have just gone under water! It's good to see one in view! Love the collage, you get a real feel of your day.

[Jen Hudson]

Whale of a time! Sorry couldn't resist. Super collage to show your day. So great to see them from the rocks too.

[Chris K]

lucky you to not only see some whales but snap them out of the water. Youve created a great collage.

[Dianne]

How fantastic - and such clear images of the whales too.

[Susan]

Fantastic collage! How thrilling!

[Tammy]
