Distant Whale

Whale (Distant)
Here in the west Pacific Ocean just off Mooloolaba we are lucky to see Humpback Whales migrate north and then south again after the calving season each year. If you look really, really closely you will just make out one whale taking a breath and diving again (just right of centre and very near the horizon). I clearly need a high zoom lens to catch these creatures from a distance of 300m.

Morning Refraction

Morning Refraction

The land masses of the NSW North Coast as seen across the Pacific Ocean from Byron Bay. What is remarkable about this image is that some of the land masses appear to be floating above the ocean surface. This is an optical illusion caused by the refraction of light due to total internal reflection off the ocean's warm surface air layer. Physics is everywhere.
