8/7/22 “Blue Whales…and Breaches”

Three trips, with beautiful seas yet again, all with a dozen or so humpbacks. This morning included 2 blue whales and several risso’s dolphin, and this afternoon trip yielded one of the best breaches I have ever photographed. The third trip? Several breaches, many tail throws, and a gorgeous sunset. What a day!!!!
