Orca Whales and Seattle

Seattle Landscape_DSC4381-Final-B&W-CW-

I recently returned from a one week trip to Seattle and the nearby San Juan Islands in Washington State. It’s a beautiful part of the country and Seattle itself comes across as sophisticated and hip. My wife and I spent most of our time in the San Juan Islands, the town of Friday Harbor to be a bit more specific.

Our main purpose for the trip though was to photograph the Orca whales that roam the nearby waters. For three days we were on a  small boat hunting, photographically, for these gentle giants. I thought I would share some of the final results.

All photographs are available as prints, t-shirts, greeting cards, tote bags and more at the link below. Please feel free to just browse.

In the process, corrupting Florida’s youth and even worse making life a nightmare for drivers. While in the throes of wild passion along roads and highways they smash into your windshield like kamikaze pilots making a massive ghastly mess.        Continue reading “Invasion of the Lovebugs”
