This was my 1000th picture with this camera, and what a picture, huh? We went out on a whale-watching boat off the Peninsula Valdéz today, and saw probably about a dozen whales. What luck! We even saw some mothers swimming with their calves. It was an impressive sight - the whales were bigger than the boat. At one point, a big male swam right under the boat. I watched him the whole time, a little unnerved by the huge creature just under us (imagine what he could do with a flick of his tail!) but it was exhilarating and beautiful all the same.
