Imagine what would happen if the whale popped up near one side of the boat...

Nice sighting! Hard to tell but the whale looks pretty close to the boat!

This is a great image for individual ID of the whale. The black and white pattern on the underside of the fluke is like a fingerprint. There will be people in your area who keep catalogues and would be able to tell you where this whale has been seen.

Bon jour mon ami. Ca va? ;)

Was this from up north around Hervey Bay?

Love it man! You got enough gear now to get to Kurnell Peninsula and shoot the north migration while it's still hot. I haven't been down that way in about eight years! E-mail me if interested and I give you the exact spot to go to!

You would have to swim home and buy a new boat? :)

Awesome capture and a little scarry to say the least. The timing on this one is unbelievable.
