RE: Finding orca along the coastline in British Columbia.
Great pic @thomasjmitchell! How far would you say you were when you took it? I can imagine it must be hard to spot any sort of animal in the ocean!
Thanks! With that shot I believe I was a good 150m|450ft away from them. They turned and began to cruise in our direction, so I was shut down and just waited patiently to see if they would come over to investigate our vessel. They did :)
That's good stability over such distance. What do you mean with "shut down"? Is it dangerous/illegal to shoot from closer? Otherwise I would like to see the other pictures of them closer!
It is a term I use to mean the engines of the boat were turned off aka shut down. In Canada you must maintain a 100m distance from these animals at all times. I do have photos of them closer and if you check out some of my earlier posts there are a few. I also will be putting up more too - stay tuned
I will check your photos out and am following you so will see future posts..looking forward to it. Keep up the great work!
Thanks, mate! I shall do my best to keep them coming
