Perfect Timing

5040

When it comes to capturing a moment, timing is everything. That was certainly the case for Josefina Wallace, who took this photograph of a whale’s fluke extending upward from the ocean.

She photographed the rare event — set on the background of a coastal wind farm — on January 18 while on a Pacific Whale Foundation sunrise tour.

“I knew my husband would love it,” Josefina said, recalling her inspiration for the dramatic image. Josefina’s husband Jack Wallace is Director of Wind Turbine Technical Services for Frontier Pro Services, and a veteran Wind Systems contributor.
