Thank you for sharing your beautiful photographs!
I knew Blue's picture was a good one, the minute I saw it.
It was a great contest!
double to Blue in Ak
those are all exceptional photographs.
Nice job. Hey Callalily I can feel the spray of those waves and GermanWatcher I'm envious the closest I ever got to a good whale photo
was maybe just glimpse of its tail oh that and some motion sickness on the boat
Thanks for the honorable mention/host's award. This was a tough one.
Wonderful shots in this month's contest!
psssssssst, how did that whale do that..... 
Great contest.
