2nd Whale Swim - 1st encounter, Part 1

First encounter of our second day swimming with whales.

 

The calf proved out to be curious/playful with us around.

Mum seemed asleep but she did a U-turn to come check us out, forcing our guide to order a quick bit of back pedalling to make room for her, which was a good call considering how close her pectoral fin got to us!

After that, she went back to sleep further below, leaving us to entertain the not-so-little one for 20 minutes or see (see Part 2).

 

Note: I shot this video in 2.7k/60fps/4:3 and tried exporting to a quality close to the original file after colour correction.

Flickr processes the video upon upload and I'm unclear if rescaling takes place, or resampling, etc ...
