The Winning Shot

Posted by Amanda on 22 Oct 2009

Breaching

Breaching

 

It seems that patience is a virtue after all…  I was sitting on the balcony at our Simonstown Guesthouse when i noticed 6 whales (3 sets of 2) in False Bay near Glencairn Beach just below us.  One of the whales started getting quite frisky and was quite keen to show off its gorgeous white underbelly.   This picture was taken from our balcony!  I’m afraid this is as close to the winning shot as you will get unless of course you are on a boat!
