1st Whale Swim - 1st encounter
First encounter of our first day swimming with whales.
I had just had time to get in the water and not half way to the guide when mother and calf swam away, not interest in our presence. Quite a sight for a first time swimming with whales though!
Despite the beautiful sun and blue skies with calm flat waters, the day proved difficult swim-wise, with only brief encounters.
At lunchtime a trio of mother/calf plus male escort did however allow us to observe them from the boat for a while, which was truly enjoyable.
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 ...
