Humpback breach in the early morning of September 11th.
In the early morning hours of September 11th in Avila Beach, CA I was in a 12 ft craft alone in the ocean as we came upon a special humpback that decided to shadow us while breaching at least a dozen times. This image depicts the whale's grace, playfulness and majesty.
