How to Photograph a Giant Humpback Whale as It Waves Hello

Wired  

It may seem obvious, but whales are huge. Nature photographer Craig Parry has spent a lot of time capturing these gentle giants, and last year he finally snapped his "dream photo." "It was so interactive that every so often I would go back to the boat to swap lenses, this female would follow me all the way back and wait for me," he says. "I calmed myself down and composed the image, making sure the ocean’s surface was calm, and evenly placed across my lens port, and then click!" "I can't tell you how proud I am of this image, and I hope when people see my images it encourages and inspires them to grab a camera and discover the beauty of this planet," Parry says.
