Incredible picture taken in Sitka, Alaska
The photo was taken at the entrance to Katlian Bay at the end of the road in Sitka, Alaska.
The whale is surfacing to scoop up a mouthful of herring (the small fish seen at the surface around the kayak).
The kayaker is a local Sitka Dentist. I haven't talked to him but haven't heard of any injuries out of this experience.
==================
This is an actual picture from Alaska !
He's actually in the whales MOUTH
That's me in the picture.
That is a whale that was just around the corner from the ferry terminal located there.
"Paddle really fast" is the only thing I could think of at the time..
Also thinking that I don't look like a herring,
don't smell like a herring but with the same herring instinct of "get the hell out of the way of that big mouth!!"
Still living to tell yet another story..
