Tänk att träffa på en blåval på nära håll när man paddlar. Det var vad Mark Sanders i Californien gjorde. Här är hans bilder...
Simply amazing encounter. Blue whales are pretty seclusive.
At least his kayak didn't attacked by a great white shark like Duane Strosaker did a few weeks ago! Shows how tough a wooden kayak can be.

Bjorn,
Thanks for exposing my Blue Whale photos to a new audience!
I can tell you it was an amazing day. I've been lucky enough to see Blue Whales on quite a few occasions, but this was the first time I got some nice photos of them!

Hi Mark,
It must have been an amazing experience! The only whales I have met at sea in my kayaks are Harbour Porpoises (tumlare in Swedish) a couple of times, and I did not have my camera accessible at those time!
Sometimes larger whales (humpbacks, orcas) come in to the Swedish west coast, but unfortunately not where and when I have been...
