Lunge Feeding Whales
by Richard Sandor
During March, Sitka Sound Alaska is full of millions of spawning herring. As a result, sea mammals gather to partake in the feast. Here's a shot of a group of humpbacks that had bubble netted a school of herring and then lunged up to harvest them. This shot captured a bit of the shoreline, but was cropped. This then is about 2/3 or the original.
Taken with a D4, 80-400 at 220, 1/1000, f/11, Auto ISO at 320 and -1EC. Richard
