Juneau, Alaska, USA. This humpback whale was cruising the channel on our whale watch. Their tales, flukes, are each unique in the white markings on the underside. Enjoy!

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
Thad, you are the master of the pun. Great title and photograph.

Wow, what a magnificent sight. I've only seen Humpback Whales in the wild while visiting Hawaii. This image brings back some amazing memories. Love the detail on the whale tail. Fantastic capture, Thad.

It are their 'fingerprints', Thad!
Thanks for another wonderful post.

Your great shot is no fluke, though. Another dandy of your Alaskan experience. Well done, Thad.

They are amazing - I too have seen the humpbacks in Hawaii - this is a great catch.

Phenomenal shot Thad. What a sight you saw and shared with us. I would have liked to have been there soaking up the atmosphere.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.
Dave and I were watching a nature show about the whales and their unique flukes last night. Your photo is very nice.

Another very interesting and, for me, unusual sight. You are lucky having seen this for real.

You my friend are a lucky man to have witnessed this. Beautiful timing on the shot and the clarity is perfect.

Thad, I can well imagine each whale has a unique and personal story they like to tell. A well-timed capture of this particular whale's tail.

The difference between a bad artist and a good one is: the bad artist seems to copy a great deal; the good one really does. ~William Blake
Wow, Excellent capture. Now the researchers would know what the name of that whale is from the tail markings
