Capturing the Moment: Orca Close Encounter, Southeast Alaska

http://daimarsadventures.blogspot.com/2015/08/orca-close-encounter-southeast-alaska.html

A photo safari into the adventures. Monday, August 3, 2015. Orca Close Encounter, Southeast Alaska. Just Breaking the Water's Surface. It had already been a pretty great day; snorkeling with seals, finding my first nudibranch, and watching brown bears catch and eat salmon underneath a waterfall. It would be hard to imagine how a day like this could get any better. Then it happened. Glassy orca bow wave. H only to realize with a flushed face what they were truly looking at.

Capturing the Moment: June 2015

http://daimarsadventures.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html

A photo safari into the adventures. Saturday, June 27, 2015. Bubble Nets and Orcas in Southeast Alaska. Creek Street, Ketchikan. Sunset at 9:45pm in Alaska. The next week was a blur of wildlife and activities with both rain and sunshine. Whale sighting occurred almost every day including a great orca encounter in the calm waters of Sea Otter Sound, and my first ever sighting of Humpback Whales bubble net feeding! Bubble Net Feeding Humpbacks. Humpback at our bow. Beautiful vistas, reflections on the wate...

Capturing the Moment: July 2015

http://daimarsadventures.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html

A photo safari into the adventures. Saturday, July 25, 2015. Humpback Whale Feeding Grounds. Pink Hues over South Baranof. It turns out that late July is a pretty good time to be in Southeast Alaska for humpback whale action. July and August mark the culmination of migrating humpbacks to the feeding grounds. The bait fish and krill are here in abundance which means so are the humpbacks. Hard to tell what this is. Two Humpbacks lunge feeding at the surface. Friday, July 17, 2015. We woke up to a good sign...

Capturing the Moment: December 2014

http://daimarsadventures.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html

A photo safari into the adventures. Sunday, December 28, 2014. Video: Underwater with Dolphins. I had been skunked the last few times I had been here so I didn't waste any time in suiting up, grabbing my fins and mask, and practically running to the water. Enjoy the video, listen for the squeaks, and see just how playful, intelligent, and nurturing these animals can be. Sunday, December 14, 2014. Sailing a Tallship Around the Hawaiian Islands. Makani Olu at the end of the pier. Sunday, December 7, 2014.

Capturing the Moment: My First Alaska Nudibranch!

http://daimarsadventures.blogspot.com/2015/08/my-first-alaska-nudibranch.html

A photo safari into the adventures. Saturday, August 1, 2015. My First Alaska Nudibranch! Well, it was only a matter of time, but I finally found my first nudibranch in Alaska! This snorkel spot blew all others out of the water that I've seen so far in Southeast Alaska. I had three intrepid snorkelers with me and was ecstatic that they were witnessing this cold water spectacle. We even had a few underwater swim by's from a couple of curious harbor seals.

Capturing the Moment: April 2015

http://daimarsadventures.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html

A photo safari into the adventures. Saturday, April 25, 2015. As I ready the ship and expedition crew for a summer in Alaska I can't help but think of all those effected by the Nepal earthquake, some being adventurers at their peaks in life tackling the tallest peak in the world on Mt. Everest. Appreciating it all a little more tonight. Tuesday, April 21, 2015. Wilderness Explorer: My new home. My top bunk with no head room. I've got a few from my bed! Close quarters=the boat life. Maxed out with kayaks.

Capturing the Moment: Glacier Bay National Park

http://daimarsadventures.blogspot.com/2015/07/glacier-bay-national-park.html

A photo safari into the adventures. Sunday, July 5, 2015. Glacier Bay National Park. We spent some quality time looking at Margerie Glacier and Johns Hopkins Glacier from the big boat, while getting up close and personal with activities at Lamplugh Glacier. It is pretty crazy for some of the veteran crew members to see Lamplugh glacier up on dry land when just over a year ago it was a tidewater glacier, with its terminal face out into the seawater.
