Japanese photographic whale

Posting photos, they said there was a humpback whale at the end of every rainbow.

Wait, is that what they said? Anyway, thanks to a perfectly timed wildlife photographer in California, you can now say with certainty that there is at least one humpback whale at the end of at least one rainbow. In the Instagram video above, you can see that this glowing cetacean seems to be sneezing at the rainbow.

Domenic Biagini, a wildlife photographer, took this video on a whale watching trip near San Diego in February and June, 65438. (Captain Dave's Dolphin and Whale Observation Tour Photographer Biakini's Instagram feed is loaded with amazing whale and dolphin videos. Biachini posted this video on Reddit yesterday (April 10), and since then, this video has accumulated more than 26 "support votes". [Whale Album: Deep Sea Giant]

This is the love of the luminous whale booster. Whales are mammals that breathe oxygen and happen to live in the sea; The stomata on their heads are basically huge nostrils. Whales use these nostrils just like when you swim: breathe in the air on the water and exhale the old air when breathing fresh air. The water column you see in the video above comes from this exhalation-but the water column is not all water. Whales usually exhale mixed air (heated by the whale's body), some water vapor and a lot of whale noses.

Humpback whales near California exhale rainbows. (Domenic Biagini) In Biagini's video, the gas exhaled by whales only captures sunlight, just like raindrops refract light into its constituent colors to form a rainbow. Like all rainbows, this is a unique drama of light in the eyes of observers; If Biakini shoots from different angles of the sun, he may not see the same rainbow effect.

Even if you have never seen a whale sneeze at a rainbow, let this video remind us that humpback whales are great. These whales are thought to migrate farther than any other mammal on earth, with a migration distance as high as 6,000 miles (9,800 kilometers) in a season. They sing love songs, obey grammatical rules, build lasting friendship, and may even try to save your life when sharks (and bloodthirsty killer whales) appear. However, the huge placenta of these whales is quite rough.
