Today’s Photo Of The Day is “Need a Bigger Boat…” by Douglas Croft. Location: Monterey Bay, California.
“This whale had breached numerous times, so I went below deck to shoot from a porthole close to the waterline to get the perspective of looking up at the whale,” explains Croft. “When he came up this time, I started firing and was quite annoyed that the boat had ruined the shots, but then I looked at the back of the camera and saw how cool it was. The tele-compression makes it look closer than it was, but the video shot by our captain from the flying bridge shows the breach was actually only 15 to 20 yards behind the boat.”
