Addictive surroundings!

Orca swimming around you, eagles fishing only a few feet away, humpback whales breaching, sealions roaring, and the splashing of water on the boat...
These are truly addictive surroundings.
I am at loss for describing words, and left standing with more than 1000 pictures already...
I can't stop shooting with my camera, I feel saturated with so many impressions, but find myself wanting more, wanting more, wanting more..
Constantly looking for the the perfect picture, the perfect moment to share with you how this really feels.

I have heard the orca's singing... with my own ears, not a recording, not a hydrophone lowered in the water... I heard it simply through the water while they were swimming all around and under the boat I was in.
Completely and utterly amazing!
It brings chills and goosebumps and tears to peoples eyes when they hear it, even the guys right beside me was deeply moved by these sounds from the deep..
I had a sudden urge to jump in the water with them, but had nowhere to put my camera, so I left that thought fairly quickly :o)
Enjoy the pictures..
