A Humpback Whale breaching can cause a massive stir to the surface of the ocean when he lands and can be heard for quite a distance especially when the water is calm. The splash sprays around the whale and trickles off his large pectoral fins as the sky above and the surrounding mountain range highlights the beauty of Frederick Sound in Alaska.
