Sperm whale fluke

I shot this photo when doing one of my last trips around Norway. To be precise we went to Andenes, a small town in Andøy (see map) and booked a safari (http://www.whalesafari.no).

Despite the windy weather, we managed to catch sight of three sperm whales. I have to say that one of the best moments was when the boat had to wait until the whale came to the surface; all the crew in silence, looking at the horizon, expecting to see its characteristic left aimed spout followed by the adrenaline rush when finally the whale appears.

By the end of the day we also could enjoy the Midnight Sun. An unforgettable experience!!
