Fishing the other day in Juno. These guys surfaced about 150' in front of the boat.

Some stuff that says "Canon" on it and a happy trigger finger.

Nice capture! Love to watch the whales when they do their fish netting things and then go in for the feeding.

Awesome!!! I have seen those whales in the Lynn Canal (in Juno) do the same thing. It really is amazing to watch :)


Life is hard...but I just take it one photograph at a time.

Think it was 6 whales. Hard to count.

Awesome shots! My father just got back from Alaska and saw a few humpbacks from the cruise ship but they were far away and it was hard to get a decent photo. In fact he bought a new lens just for that trip (Tamron 18-270) and I tried to convince him to get a 100-400L. He's sorry now, lol.
