Humpback Whale

Description:

Went on an Alaska tour 2 years ago with my dad and caught this shot of a Humpback breaching first time I ever saw whales in the wild let alone breaching. This photo is a prize of mine.I am still amazed that I got it.

Really fantastic shot! I just got to see a baby breaching in the Pacific, off of Costa Rica, but definitely did not get any photos near this great.

Spectacular!
Allthough being there watching it breach, feeling the power and the weight of the whale when it hits the water and hearing the thunderous sound of the whale hitting the surface must have been equally precious and probably still fresh in your mind!!
