Phil Halper (aka Skydivephil) | "Thus, I give up the spear" Whale Encounters @PhilHalper1 | Uploaded September 2015 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
Note to youtube, the music is used with permission as it was for a competition where we had to use thematic they provided and upload to youtube! The title of this film is the last thing said by Ahab in Moby Dick. We like to think of it as symbolic of the end of whaling. As humanity decides there is greater value in simply being in the presence of these magnificent animals than killing them. This film was shot over several expeditions to try and see whales close up in Dominica (Sperm Whales), Dominica Republic ( Humpbacks) and San Ignacio Lagoon Mexico (Gray's).
