it’s pretty rare that i’m too terrified to take a photograph, but — we went out into the pacific on a whale watching expedition this afternoon and the seas were so high that i never once got out my camera once we broke the harbor.

we did see a pod of whales. they were beautiful. but when i should have been taking the picture, i was instead hanging on for dear life, trying not to throw up, and watching a dear friend come one hand-hold away from going overboard.

nature is exciting.
