That's fake, if you look close enough, you can see the blur effect on the whale from photoshop or other similar programs

Looked at it so many times... not sure if fake or not, but if not, why is there only one pic? Where was it taken, and so on.
There should be like 100 photos. Show more of this session. If not, then it's a fake or same as a Bigfoot sighting.
If nothing else, a great way to get people talking (BS'ing) on the interweb

The whale was processed with glass distortion. I would say a frosting glass distortion.

Oh, it's real alright.....
This is from my vacation pics with an ex-girlfriend.
I don't appreciate you guys calling her a "whale" either. She's just big boned.
Please come back LuLu- I'm sorry and I miss you.
Forever Yours,
