Beautiful. I went whale watching and only saw them flip their tails up. Not as lucky as this

I missed 5 other jumps. If you're not pointing the camera toward the potential jumper then it's very difficult to catch them on camera. Your head is on the swivel, you see it breaching to your left, camera is on the right, by the time you aim all that is left it's the tip of the fin.
I was on a zodiac and one of them decided to take a breath right under the stern. It was a good shake.
Here is another one

I love the guy with the binoculars in pic #2. He must have been on barnacle watch Laughing
