A perfect example of this was caught in the Californian waters at Monteray Bay, a place famous for whale-watching.

It was a gigantic humpback whale, caught on camera breaching the water, right before a small fishing boat.

The photographer that captured the amazing close encounter, Douglas Craft said: “The whale is big! If I ‘d been the fisherman, I ‘d probably require some brand-new underwear.”

The small fishing boat, coupled with the angle of the shots make the breaching whale look much more ginormous.

” I went listed below deck to shoot from a porthole near to the waterline. That’s what provides this incredible perspective of looking up at the whale,” said Douglas.

Along with Douglas, was Kate Cummings, who is a whale spectator, she captured an incredible video of the whale breaching. Talking on this she said:

” It was fun capturing this video. The whale had actually currently breached multiple times much further far from the fisherman. But sometimes when whales breach several times, they’re likewise heading a particular direction when they’re underwater structure momentum for the following breach. I figured the following violation would be around the fisherman since the whale was heading this way and sure enough! Though I really did not expect the whale and the boat to line up so completely.”
