Sperm Whale (Fluke) Physeter macrocephalus

Kaikoura, New Zealand, 2000

We found only one whale on this day, and we were only able to see this diving sequence once. Luckily, our guide was superb at predictiong the timing of the whale's dive sequence, and I was able to capture the peak moment by shooting continuously through the diving process.
