    These are great! Whales are so cool. It's neat you got to be so close to them.

    Nice work Jeremy. I was in Ketchikan last year and got some whale captures and the conditions are very challenging.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Harry,

    Yes very challenging.. I actually have a few new ones I took today I will post up a lot more feeding shots. I think most the wildlife shots out here are hard, mainly because its always gray out and the water and waves are not always ideal. I finally saw one breach 2 days ago, but of course I did not have my camera...

    To everyone else thank you...Yes the Whales are amazing to photograph one thing I like about my job here and my captain he will get me in the whale action for the great photographs :) I am now planning a Hawaii trip to see them mating.
