Including informative captions and a moving essay on his experiences photographing the humpbacks, Mitsuaki Iwago's Whales is the most riveting and original work over produced about one of the world's most fascinating and spectacular creatures.

It is obvious that Mitsuaki Iwago went to great lengths to produce the photography he displays in this book. His photo captures of the cooperative 'bubble feeding' behavior of the humpbacks is remarkable. This type of behavior seems to be unique to the humpback whales of southeast Alaska which Mr. Iwago has done a remarkable job documenting in this book with absolutely fascinating photography. This is one book that should not be left out of any collection pertaining to whales.

Some of the photos in this book are the best I've ever seen of nature photography. It's a book I've enjoyed looking through many times with my son, who is now 3 years old. My only quibble is that some of the photos are too much alike, e.g., too many spouts together in one place. But I hate to say anything negative at all about such a beautiful set of pictures. There's also some useful information about humpback whales.
