    Humpback whale breaching in Iceland

    By rrrobertsson  |  Posted September 1, 2012  |  Reykjavik, Iceland
     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     rrrobertsson is a resident of Iceland, but this was the first time he went whale watching on a boat off the coast of Reykjavik, Iceland. 'The tour was great, but seeing the humpback breach was of course the highlight,' he said. He says he was shocked he caught the whales on video. 'Oh man, I was lucky,' he said.
    - Jareen, CNN iReport producer

    This summer I went on a whale watching Iceland tour in Reykjavik. The weather wasn´t too great, but they were still sailing. In the middle of the tour when nobody was expecting anything I was able to capture this lovely humpback whale breaching. It was like a tiny little circus act for us. The captain of the boat told me nobody had capture a shot like this all the years he had been sailing. Not even when they had some professional TV crew on board.
