Photographer's Note

Humpback Whale Project - Caravelas
In the region of the Abrolhos Archipelago, in the south of Bahia, between the months from July to November, humpback whales arrive and focus in order to create and reproduce. They are usually seen in pairs of females with cubs accompanied by adult males (escorts). These compete for access to females of reproductive age. To study and protect these whales in their breeding season and reproduction, was created in 1988 the Humpback Whale Project.
