Killer whales are predators of the Delphinidae family, toothed whales. There are plenty of killer whale species, some of them prefer feeding on fin-footed mammals, sharks and even whales whereas others prefer fish and shell-fish. I've taken photos of not carnivore killer whales. That was a one big family hunting for fish during a sunny windless day. There are scores of fish on Kamchatka so their hunting looked rather laid-back and leisured. One of the shots shows some fish just jump right into the mouth of a killer whale. Throughout 4 seasons I've been trying to take photos of killer whales by the shores of Kamchatka. It seemed to me that I won't be able to take pictures better than previous year but this time the conditions were just perfect. If you wish to have the same results, here are a couple of tips: 1. Don't sink your drone while landing 2. Make use of a polarizing filter since it'll make water look more transparent.
