A rare encounter with a newborn baby gray whale this past week left us in awe as we watched it learn to swim and frolic in the water with its mother. Judging from its size and swimming ability, we figure it was only hours old…days at most.
As wildlife and nature photographers, we spend many hours searching, observing and waiting for the right moment, lighting, composition, etc. This was a day when all the stars aligned and we were there, ready to capture it. The only thing to overcome at that point is the excitement and adrenaline knowing that we have something very special happening in front of us. That is when we are grateful for all the preparations we have made to be ready for the moment. It is fun for us to share the beauty we see that many cannot ever see first hand.
Join us in celebrating our one year anniversary at our beautiful gallery in downtown Ventura. The year has flown by and we are having so much fun displaying our work on the beautiful brick walls of our 100 year old building at the corner of Oak and Main Streets. Join us the weekend of October 18th for lots of fun activities!
