Every one takes them and I have tons of them. Each whale tale is special. It’s an amazing thing to see in person just as a breach is or even when they become very friendly and come within feet of you and poke their heads out of the water. I love whales and I am amazed and puzzled by them. This shot was made in Antarctica where I have had some of my best whaling shots. I played with contrast and a few other things to boost the impact of this image.
What an fascinating and mysterious creature! Really like the color of this shot, matches the massive and elegent animal in such a cold place!
