whale pictures

[Gordon]

Next week I am going whale watching out of Ventura, CA. Any
suggestions? I will be using a Canon S2Is with 12x zoom.

I suppose you should set it to a sports/action setting to make sure the
shutter speed is fast enough for they jump out of the water at you.

Make sure you go on a wale watching tour with a sizable boat. We took
a small sail boat to Catalina Island from Marina Del Rey, the trip was
great, stayed the night at the Harbor in Catalina. It was on the way
back that almost killed us. High winds, Massive waves cresting over
the boat, sails flowdered and we almost lost stearing. In fact we
almost colided with a big container ship. Man those things are huge
close up.

Just make sure your on a big boat!
