A whale comes close to a paddleboarder in Plymouth and a photographer captures the wild moment
“All of a sudden he came right up out of the water. It was just really insane.”
A local photographer captured an incredible moment with his camera Sunday morning when he snapped a photo of a whale coming up out of the water near a paddleboarder in Plymouth.
Craig Picariello, of Carver drove to Manomet Point Sunday morning with the goal of shooting images of the sunrise, and, if he was lucky, a photo of a whale. He drove his 2012 Dodge Challenger there and arrived at about 5:15 a.m. and snapped photos of the sunrise. He then went to get a coffee and came back, hoping to see some whales.
Armed with his Canon EOS 77D, Picariello was standing there looking at the water, waiting patiently to see any signs of a the creature. “There were a lot of fisherman out there,” he said in a phone interview. “I noticed the fish started jumping a little bit. And then all of a sudden a swirl in the water.”
