My girlfriend and I went on a whale watching trip today because we got free tickets because last year we saw nothing. Well, they made up for it today! We had 3 different Fin Back whales each come within 100 feet of the boat...one of these whales was easily 65-70 feet in length. On the way home my girlfriend looked at me and said "I didn't think the whale's would be that big"....and that is a direct quote...I couldn't make that up!

I dunno if you'd call these "non-fish photos"! We also saw some Atlantic white-sided dolphins and some large tuna (5-6 feet) feeding...which means jumping a few feet outta the water. I unfortunately was unable to get pics of these.

I appologize for the blurrines of some pics, the whales didn't give an advance warning of when they'd be around!

It's humbling to be in the presence of these massive, graceful animals. I loved it, hell, I love going out even if we dont see any...I love the ocean!
 
Neat pictures. I saw some orcas once while on a dinner cruise. I will never forget it.

I love whale watches, I was on one a couple years ago, and got a lot of pictures, but that was with a regular camera and scanning is a pain.
Beautiful pictures though.
