Another sunny day with minke whales and a humpback whale
It was a really beautiful day today and, still, we're having great luck with the whales. We spotted 3 or 4 minke whales, one of them pretty huge. Also we saw one of the humpback whales from yesterday. It wasn't Jonni though, the one we have been seeing the last week or so. Christian the 1st from the Whale museum looked this one up in the humpback whale registry in the museum and told me that we got a visit from him in July 2008. I love that it's possible to track the humpback whales like this.
Halla was guiding for the first time and did a great job so I could basically relax and take pictures like the tourists. I let some of them follow here.
Þórdís, guide.
It's important to be ready to shoot when the whale comes up
