Southern Resident Orcas ( J, K and L pod)

This one is a bit cut off, but I still like it. Moving whales, while on a moving boat in big waves!!! This is L55 Nugget with L86 Surprise's face coming out of the water.

I agree with RM - I too am really enjoying these sets Jude and I favour shot 3 as well.

Thanks Runmonty and Marko!

I like them all, but my fav would have to be the Orcas in #1. Just something about the pano that works so well here Jude. Very nice.
