Yes, excellent. But what are all those white ring tatoos on the snout end?

Once in a lifetime opportunity to have a whale so close for almost three weeks. I can tell you many in our town were moved by the experience. Alas Allie the whale has departed Alameda waters, hopefully to join other humpbacks in the ocean.

Possibly skin reaction to barnacles.

The first photo is spectacular, not to say that the others are not very good. Nothing like being at the right place at the right time!
Lucky capture though being prepared was essential. The whale breached directly in front of me and very close, completely without warning, and outside of a more typical "show."

Spectacular!
Oh... there's always space on the ceiling, no?
