I have spent the last decade in the company of Humpback whales and in this time I have learned a great deal about behaviour.
With all expeditions I aim to give back to the scientific and research community. This is in many forms such as providing fluke shots of whales for identification, donating footage to scientists and government bodies to help in conservation of a species.
All Humpback Fluke shots are available on my flickr page for anyone to access and use as part of their research or in collaboration with other organisations.
I am also happy to donate images to non-profit organisations or conservation groups.
Organisations
Some of the organisations I donate images to for their campaign and educational materials include:
- Greenpeace
- IFAW
