Hi, np and thank you! I worked with lions and cheetas and loads of other animals in Namibia! Been there twice, wonderful place! Def going back again. I saw the humpbacks from a boat just off the coast of Sydney, it was only a days trip - would love to work with Humpbacks, did you volunteer or what ? Been to noosa, but we didnt go whale watching

wow I would love to go to Namibia, I did all my work in south africa and didn't have time to go anywhere else >.< oh well one day mebbe. When I worked with the aussie humpbacks I was a voluenteer scientist working for the university of queensland, but I've also worked with humpbacks in america for 4 months as a research assistant
Where you doing vollie work in africa with the lions n' cheetahs?

Yupp, it was 'vollie' work ^^, @Harnas Wildlife Foundation. My favorite place in the whole world
I see your studying biology (zoology)? Thats awesome, I wanted to do that myself, but I havent yet found out what to study - Might do a two years course of animal welfare/care next fall. Then we'll see
Anyway, you have some really great pictures of the whales. I didnt get to see them jump much so have no photos of it

yeah getting good breaching shots is tough, I spent 5 months with humpbacks and I've got like... 4 good breaching pictures! They are too quick >.<
Animal welfare is a good choice, but can be tough on you (you have to deal with what happens when people don't adhere to animal welfare laws/guidelines), I spent a year working for the UK government's animal welfare team, protecting zoo/farm/lab/wild animals in the UK from inhumane treatment ^-^ but I'm now doing a PhD to become a research zoologist. Good luck with it!
