Light finding motion.
Rising Light — Killer Whale Fine Art Photography
There are moments when power meets stillness — and the ocean explodes into light.
Rising Light captures a Bigg’s killer whale surging upward through golden Pacific Northwest waters as the last light of day ignites the spray around it. Backlit by a fading coastal sunset in the San Juan Islands, the orca’s form becomes sculptural — a dark silhouette edged in fire and motion.
The image holds contrast: weight and lift, shadow and glow, silence and force. The suspended droplets shimmer against distant island silhouettes, grounding the whale within its wild habitat while elevating the moment into something almost mythic.
This fine art print is produced using museum-grade materials chosen for archival longevity, depth, and color integrity. Whether presented as paper, canvas, metal, or acrylic, Rising Light is designed to command space — a bold statement piece that carries the raw spirit of Pacific Northwest marine wilderness into your home.
