Out of the Deep
The tail fluke of a humpback whale ...... I never dreamt I would come this close.
The humpback whale resides in the waters of Northern British Columbia in the Summer and migrates to the warm waters of Mexico and Hawaii to have its young. My son-in-law took us out in his small open boat , and I almost missed this shot when the whale was immediately infront of the boat. What excitement!!!!

Thank you so much for your many visits and comments for my Christmas and New years cards - and thank you for all your good wishes. Soon I will be back in Vancouver and be in FC regularly.

Ein wunderbares Foto mit einer bestechenden Schärfe. Man muss innerhalb von Sekundenbruchteilen auf einen Bildausschnitt, eine Entfernung und Bewegung reagieren, sehr gut gemacht. Weiter so.Mit lieben Grüßen
