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.

How thrilling! I love seeing your wildlife photos.
Happy to hear you are enjoying them, Alison.
I will never forget the whales in Alaska breaching next to the boat. What an incredible animal !. The fear and excitement was overwhelming !
That’s what I want to capture some day. Haven’t had much luck, not even in Alaska.
