Original Composition: A Gift From The Sea

Original Composition: From Glassy To Ripple And Ripple To Wave

Finger-style Arrangement: To The Last Whale

Here is a solo guitar rendition of the

 Crosby, Stills, and Nash tune; To The Last Whale.

The video footage was taken by me in Alaska.

The breaching Humpback Whale video was taken from a whale-watching vessel that I was captaining in 2003 out in Sitka Sound. 

The Orca video was taken between Sitka Sound and Krestof Sound in a beautiful area called Degroff Bay. Just happened back into there during a whale-watching excursion that I was captaining during Sitka's Whalefest. There is only one narrow entrance into the bay so once we sighted the Orca we never got between the Orca and the exit of the bay and were careful to only view them for about 15 minutes. It was a mystical experience.

If you've never heard the song "To The Last Whale", by Crosby and Nash, here is a good link. The song is also called "Wind On The Water".

This is an example of my photography with music that I composed and performed.
