I like it though John. It really does convey a goodbye. A sad to see you go picture. Love whales. Linda S

Looks like this shot is a fluke!

My recollection is that these guys were a bear to get a good clear shot of, so you did alright. ;-)

I think this is a terrific shot. Excellent composition.

Nice catch of the flukes, John. We also had a hard time getting them as they so often just slipped under without raising the tail. Well caught and a lovely shot.

John, you may not be seeing more of the whale, but you can tell that it is truly a whale! I like the water dripping off of his tale!
