Who Doesn’t Like A Whale Tail

I have traveled a lot and photographed hundreds of humpback whales and whale tails. Here a whale tail from my recent trip to Svalbard. We had a real good whale encounter and this is one of the many images I made while the sun was starting its trip to the horizon.

Here’s an interesting fact. You can identify a whale by its tail. There is a website called Happy Whale and you send the images you have of whale tails. They will put the photo in their database a report back if the whale has been spotted before and where. They will also send you an email if someone else identifies the same whale. You can see on a map where the whale has been. Pretty fun stuff.

Antarctica 2020

This has been a strange year. It all began with loads of optimism and has turned out to be something totally surreal. The Worldwide Pandemic has changed everything. But, before the Pandemic started I was lucky to get an Antratcia Workshop in and with Art Wolfe and Michael Durr as well as 28 guests. We took this trip onboard The Magellan Explorer, a brand new ship run by Antarctica 21 the charter company I have been using for years. Thie trip was an incredible experience and I wrote an article over on photoPXL.com with four videos and the trip log for the trip. With this blog entry, I have included four photos but the article on PXL has a lot more plus the video will blow you away. You can find the article at Antarctica Workshop Expedition 2020 – February 15-21, 2020.

Please check it out and enjoy the content and think about joining us in November 2021 when we take a 21-day journey to South Georgia Island and Antarctica. This is the ultimate Antarctica Experience.

Whale Tail

I have photographed a lot of whales over the years. One of the coolest things to see is a humpback whale when it dives as its tail comes out of the water for a few seconds and when it does water flows off of it. This shot I like because of the colors from the setting sun. It adds color and texture in the reflections of the water.
