Mark had the day off on Good Friday, and we decided to use our day together for a whale watching trip. We did one not too long ago, but it was cold and very windy that day. Friday was different; it was a very enjoyable day on the boat, and we got to see many sea animals. In addition to the brown pelicans and sea gulls, we also spotted a female Baleen Whale with her calf, we watched hundreds of Common Dolphins, and saw some resting sea lions. Basically, from the beginning of the trip till the end there was something to see.

Here is a collection of the pictures I took during the trip. Since I don’t own a long zoom lens that’s best for this kind of photography, I just used my 85mm lens – and later cropped the images.

There was a professional photographer on board who specializes in whale and such photography, and we bought his images as well. His name is Dale Frink, and here are some of his pictures:
