A humpback whale "rainblow"

This humpback whale surprised us by surfacing not far from our boat and the whales blow generated a brief but stunning rainbow with the bright sunshine illuminating the scene. Complete luck. But I am happy to have got the shot!

Well, I do have to say that your "luck" also has to do with a very ready camera!
Impressive!
