The Ocean Magic Wildlife Adventure on Sunday at 12:15 was set against sunny sky's and calm seas. We were in search of marine wildlife, and Capt Tyler took us across Haro Strait looking for Orca. We caught of with the Killer Whales as they reached San Juan Island. Here we followed them along the picturesque shoreline. We got great views of Ruffles J1 as we was working out further from the shoreline. His huge dorsal fin towering above the water. Our on board naturalists shared their in depth knowledge on the Orca, their eating habits, socialization, and the efforts to help protect them. Our passengers were all smiles as they stepped off the boat back in Victoria's inner harbor, yet another great wildlife adventure with Prince of Whales! Clint "Orcawizard"
Most of the images on the blog are shot with a 400 mm telephoto lens. Because of our restrictions around wildlife (100+ meters), we use powerful lenses to better share orca activity that passengers see on their trips. Keep in mind this also heavily compresses space between objects. We also crop images for best blog viewing.
The videos are generally shot in wide angle and are very realistic to what the eye sees on the boat. Please enjoy the photos for the telephoto view, and the videos for a boat based, real life passenger view.
