Whale Tale South
Whale Tale South, Humpback Whale, Cierva Cove, Antarctica
This image was taken in Cierva Cove on the Antarctic Peninsula from a Zodiac (a rubber boat with a motor). At the time, we were completely surrounded by a group of about 50 humpback whales cooperatively feeding on krill. They were “bubble-netting” as a group to drive the prey into an undersea ball and then swallow them in large gulps. They were completely aware we were there and moved gently to avoid us. Nevertheless, they were almost close enough to touch.

Workmanship and Quality
My matted works are printed on Moab Juniper Baryta 305 paper using Canon Lucia pigment Inks. The matting and backs are conservation quality and are assembled by me (or my wife) with acid-free tapes. This combination has an expected 30-plus year life span without fading or degradation. Framed works, of course, include the same matting. All matted photographs fit in standard sized frames available in many art supply stores and from online retailers.
My frames are exhibition-style Nielsen-Bainbridge anodized aluminum radials, slightly rounded, for a classic look. The glazing is anti-UV acrylic which is lighter and more durable than glass and helps further preserve the image. The hanging hardware is pre-installed. If you compare the price of comparable framing from your local framing store, you will find my pricing to be extremely competitive.
