Whale Tales
Humpback whales were feeding throughout the Antarctic waters. We saw probably close to 50 over two days. Someday I hope to capture one of those breaching-whale shots, with the whale jumping high above the water. In the meantime, here are some whale bits and pieces — fins, tails, mouths, and humps.

Antarctic Flyers
I’ve been snapping lots of pictures of birds. These are two of my favorites. Two Black-browed Albatrosses glide in perfect synchrony over Antarctic waters. Photo taken from my cabin balcony. From a distance, some of us mistook this colony of Imperial Cormorants for penguins, until we saw them flying off (penguins don’t fly).
