I recently inherited Mari's old camera. I think she got tired of hearing me tell her what to take pictures of. Here are my first pictures. Disclaimer: I have no formal or informal training in using a DSLR camera, however, I anticipate the photos will get better. Click on the pics for a full-screen view.
This batch of photos is from a whale watching cruise we went on today. Humpbacks live and feed off the Northwest coast, including Alaska and British Columbia. Come November and December, some of these whales migrate 3,000 miles to to the warm waters of Hawaii. Some of them do so to breed and others to give birth. Then they migrate back to the cold and food-rich waters where they came from. Researchers estimate that the voyage takes them around 30 days.
This is a view of Mt. Edgecumbe. It's a dormant volcano on Kruzof island, 9 miles west of Sitka.
I don't own a zoom lens. Sorry about that.
