An unofficial Wetpixel group run by video guru Drew Wong is currently off in South Africa photographing the sardine run, an annual event where thousands of dolphins, sharks, and gannets feed on a massive sardine migration up the eastern cape.  As a bonus, it is currently humpback whale season, so the participants have also been seeing whales pretty much daily.  I went with Drew last year and had a great time (ask him about the time he scared away the humpback whale while wearing a spiderman wetsuit).

Drew and the participants have been sending in daily updates via GPRS connection on a mobile phone.  Follow their progress in our forums!
