Ah, orca eyes, endless source of fun, beauty and fascination. Not all too often is it visible on photos, let alone so clearly! He's really gorgeous here, with all the water running down his body. On other notice; I've rarely seen an orca with so much white on its upper lip, usually it's just a small part near the corner of the mouth. Or have I just not been looking before?

Thanks! Some of the orcas have more white intrusion on the upper lip, I know Trua and Malia have it, just not as much. But it could just be the angle making it look like there's more white than there actually is.

Yeah, I guess it's the pose here as well. The sun is lighting the lower part of his lip here, making the white look really white. Usually that would be shadowed, making it look almost black sometimes.

Aaah he's gorgeous, you did well to capture this! How far did you zoom in to capture this without blurring! Love love love, thank you for sharing!

I used my 55-300MM Lens on this, and I think it was zoomed all the way. I have to say that I was very surprised that I got this play breach sequence clear, as most of the time they would be blurred. Thank you!
