A few images of a pair of Humpback Whales that spent much of Sunday very close to the cliffs at the southern tip of Mainland Shetland. Sadly my photos don't do these huge animals justice. I didn't notice any tail flukes appearing, and I would have loved for them to breach! There have been around 6 Humpbacks spotted close to shore in the last few weeks, which is quite unusual - hopefully there will be more opportunities like this. I was close enough to smell their breath as the exhaled - it reeks!
