Pure Luck
Further to yesterday's post, this shot came as pure luck. While I was standing alone at the stern of the ship inhaling diesel fumes, I was also taking photos of the pass we were travelling through. i was shooting the weather on a distant mountain when this plumb popped up in my second shot. He never breached but from his flukes (that later appeared) I could tell he was a Killer Whale.
Amazing considering I had been shooting in the other direction only seconds prior to this encounter. Additionally astonishing given that he popped up right in the middle of my frame. Luck is often defined, "where preparation meets opportunity". However, this was pure chance considering I was photographing the mountain.
