It's whale watching season in Australia. Each year, starting in May, whales make their way north along the eastern and western coasts, heading for warmer waters to breed before returning south for the summer.

Whether you're headed out on a boat to see the humpbacks, or you've spotted a southern right whale from the shore, we want to see your pictures. You can share them with us using GuardianWitness, by clicking the "contribute to this article" button, and we'll feature our favourites on the site through the season.
