This was taken at Marazion beach near Penzance in Cornwall. Saint Michael's Mount can be seen in the background.

My dad took my mum, my two brothers and I down to see the whale when we heard one had been washed up in the storm that had happened.

I was pretty young 7 or 8 can't exactly remember. What I can remember is trying to climb ontop of the whale but the wind was so bad we couldn't manage it.

I had never been so close to a mammal of that size before.
