That is indeed a shot of a lifetime! You must be very proud. I was in Alaska last year and was fortunate enough to see a humpback breeching too, but I didn't manage to score a shot like that!!!

Btw, this need to be a large print. I'm not saying I would buy it but it would be on my wishlist for sure.

Wow as everyone has said this is a beautiful photo. I think it was a mix of luck, timing and skill to get such a lovely shot. I hope to go whale watching off the coast of south Africa at some point in my life.
Where abouts were you when you took this?? Congrats again on the capture
