“Every year, humpback whales come to Kingdom of Tonga during July to September. The mothers raise their babies and when they are enough strong they go far away to the cold water. During whale watching activity, you can live some incredible experiences by interaction with this fabulous mammal. This young calf played with me during 30 minutes under the control of his mother, a great memory. Photo by Marc Henauer.”

Aahhh …. awesome moment 🙂
Isn’t it though….
I’ve loved seeing them, the few times I’ve had that opportunity.
I’ve never had the good fortune. Must be amazing.
Check out my first ever blog post where I tell about seeing a humpback. https://wordsfromanneli.wordpress.com/2014/04/20/third-anniversary-of-wordsfromanneli/
On my way….

So agree
These magnificent creatures take my breath away every single time I see them. Stunning..and to see one up close, in the water with me, wow. Can’t begin to imagine what that experience is like…
It would be once in a lifetime experience…for sure
Awesome shot! And the others are too, each in their own way. Thanks for sharing, David.
