Note:
Quality of these picture is not too hot... max. zoom (optical _and_ digital) had to be used (no boat can approach whales more than 100 ft); Also, the pictures were taken by a non-professional digital camera that are famous for long-seconds delay of the shutter (except of, perhaps, Minolta D'Image?); As whales show up just for the blink of an eye, these pictures were extremely hard to get with our Nikon CoolPix 4300... We did see a full breach but no luck to take a picture :(.
