One morning in particular stands out. It was a cooler morning zodiac cruise expedition, where I got to observe juvenile penguins get the zoomies around and on and off an iceberg. For the full circle of life experience, I also got to witness a leopard seal hunting a penguin. Once back on the boat I hopped into the hot tub to warm up, shortly after I got into the hot tub I saw a humpback whale breach a little ways off the boat. It was a surreal morning.

Interrupting my dinner to walk up onto the deck to discover that the cove we were to be camping in that night was lit with the most beautiful light, and the water was mirror still. I noticed while eating that the evening light was changing and I thought it might be a great time for photography. It was the absolute most breathtaking moment of my life.

The whole trip was so memorable it's hard to pick the most memorable. But seeing penguins upclose and whales was unbelievable experience. One day we were seeing about 10 whales when in our zodiac. Also would like to share what a deal it was to be included in the Photo group. Totally worth every penny. We got to go out first and stay out later, and the guides were fantastic even if just using your iphone camera!!

We had a humpback whale come right up beside our zodiac where it stayed for about half an hour! It was so playful and curious, skyhopping to see what was going on and swimming around genuinely like it was playing with us. It was incredible!
