Photo of the Day
April 19, 2018 | Whale Tale
While freediving with friends off the coast of Mexico's Baja California, Your Shot photographer Jorge Hauser noticed an "unexpected visitor" swimming 45 feet below. "When I dove down I never thought I'd catch up," Hauser says, but he managed to capture this shot: the whale's massive fins looming out of the dark as it swims away.
