Humpback Whale Photography Tour – Hawaii

In January I lead a Wildlife Photograph Tour to Hawaii primarily photograph Humpback Whales. What a great time.

We spent a couple of days on Kauai relaxing and seeing the sites then moved to Maui to photograph the whales. We spent three days on the water with Pacific Whale Foundationa leader eco-based whale watching.  If you’ve never been whale watching put it on your short list of things to do.

Although we didn’t get any photographs of whales completely breaching the water we were able to photograph them as close ten feet. In fact we had one male at about fifty feet do a half breach and land on another male flipping him upside down, as they fought over the affections of a female that kept going under our boat to shield her virtue from both of them.
