Whales Tale

Whale outside Hawaii Kai4
Sorry I am late on posting - had papers to finish and work to do but I hope this was a worthwhile wait - this was a complete accidental pic while I was photographing something else from shore using my zoom - how I wish I had a SLR telephoto for this!

Quite remarkable - you can see more on the flickr page - there was a lot of whales and other ocean activities today!!!

    That is so great. I was watching the whales last week but couldn't get any pictures.

    I could even have waited longer for this amazing shot and the Flickr ones. So how often do you actually see whales and dolphins?
    Is this a rare pic, or does this happen more often?
    You see, I still can't believe the luck of seeing those animals I only know from television LIVE in front of you...

    I see whales about once every couple of weeks- but I am sure you can see them almost everyday if you just hangout at the lookout and just wait for them - they are very active in hawaiian waters this time of the year

    So cool. Have you ever been in the water and have them come close to your canoe? Yikes!
