Photo: Fluke Orca Killer Whale Sunset
An excited orca whale, aka killer whale, lifts it's tail fluke out of the water and slaps the surface in a playful display during sunset.
The colours of sunset turn the water into molten gold as a playful killer whale celebrates a sea lion kill by slapping the water with it's tail fluke.
This picture has captured the motion of the water as the orca lifts it's fluke clear out of the water several times.
