This sunrise image had a surprise in it. A whale spouting in the sunrise you can just see him in the images. All images are copyrighted all rights reserved.
I have never captured a sunrise like this one.
The power of cropping makes this a "Fill the frame," image.
Sometimes I really do crack myself up.
#1 - Fri Sep 30, 2011 7:50 PM EDTYes you are funny. I love the personalized icon, building on your brand. It's very nice. ;-)
We still want everyone to use the brand imaging that was created for the group's use. I don't want to discourage you from using your creation here but can find a way to incorporate everything into your Friday-Saturday-Sunday articles while keeping them distinctively apart? It's very important for everyone to be consistent with the brand imaging.
BTW, do you know what that steamy thing in the water (by the whale?) is?
JJ,
First... Fantastic sunrise photo!!! Nice of that whale to accommodate at exactly the right moment.
Second... I would like to offer some thoughts on your Mighty Images graphic. Ben and I and others have gone to great lengths to create a brand or a logo for the group. It would be really nice if you used THOSE images for the purpose of identifying the particular feature and the group (e.g. foto-friday, weekend-exposure, etc). If everyone make their own variation on those things then it pretty much defeats the purpose of the brand.
Third... I think your graphic is GREAT! In fact I have some of my own, like this, and this, and this... But I am not using my graphics as substitutes for the NVP branding. I encourage you to keep making those graphics... They are very creative... You are good at making them! But as I said above, please don't use them to replace the NVP brand.
Cheers,
Mal
A sunrise like that is a rare gift. The addition of a whale spouting, you must be blessed. Beautiful photo's.
I notice the uneveness of the ocean on the horizon.
Great shots.

Is that because of waves? I had to go up and look again...
They are very beautiful!
I believe so chelli.
but if you see what I do, the waves, although not tall, are extremely wide.
Although it can appear to be flat, the sea is always in motion.
I could be all wet, though!:)
jj and borehead,
I'd buy either explanation. There is nothing more peculiar to me than looking off into a vast expanse of ocean to change my world view. I've seen the ocean (in person) 3 times, 3 places, and it is such a different of a perspective of the world for me. Very beautiful and wondrous, at any rate.
I say NEXT time jj goes out we ALL jump on board with him!
Who's with me for a road trip! (or a boat trip!)
Your pictures are so wonderful! Seriously, you are safe from my stowaway threats.... I get sick just thinking about being on a boat!!!

#10 - Fri Sep 30, 2011 11:46 PM EDTI would love to jump on board to get some of these shots! Those are amazing, something you never think you'll see, photos. Just beautiful!
What a beautiful picture JJ. I've never seen anything like it either. Wow. You see things some of the rest of us only dream of.....thanks for sharing them.
#13 - Sat Oct 1, 2011 9:34 AM EDTMaybe it was a ghostest whale spirit JJ? Could have been. Looks like an apparition to me kind of anyways.
I mean the steam whale not the real whale.
Maybe it was saying see ya next time you're out here on George's Banks.
Powerful sunrise and to capture that moment of spray is awesome.The partial cloud in the sun is just enough to add a small yet signifiucant impact for me. GREAT!!!
#17 - Sat Oct 1, 2011 7:25 PM EDTWhat a Blinding Light..

each morning..fills our soul..
with delight..

#22 - Sun Feb 19, 2012 6:49 AM ESTExcellent photos. Love the sun behind the whale.
Sign me up for the boat vinemeet.
Sounds good! Wasn't too close to the Kodiak/Prince William Sound salmoin last year. Spent my time in SE.
Good luck. Good boat, good crew, good karma, good season. Stay safe, be well back there.
Good luck on the trip. SE is so big you have to be north-south, inside-outside, and play the hand you pick. Good luck down there. Permits are overpriced,but they are available. Happy hunting!
Plus, you're a local. Could be some people to know and take advantage of from there. They do have a serious red run occasionally and chums are always plentiful. And the area extends almost halfway to Chignik.
Outsiders stay outside, law of life, rule of existence in Chignik! That and they have shallow seiners and not as many meshes in their nets. Fish the lagoon, live and die in the lagoon.
Those were some hot seasons then weren't they? I know we were doing very well up in BB, and were somewhat envious of you guys.
