My second whale sighting came a couple days ago.  This time, the camera was ready.  These two humpbacks were northbound in the Tongass Narrows just a few minutes outside of Ketchikan.

Best I could do with the inclement weather and distance involved.  The wake in the foreground is from a cruise ship which meant our ferry was further from the whales than it might have otherwise been.  But I’ve got a lot of boat rides remaining, so I’m sure there will be more chances.
