[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This photo of a Sperm Whale "spouting" was taken from a boat (hence the uneven horizon). Immediately after (within seconds) of taking the shot, up came the tail and down it went into the depths of feed on giant squid. We were just off the shore of St. Lucia in the Caribbean, at the time.

Hi Marc,
Being so close to a whale spouting is such a magic moment; it's a pity that few pictures can capture that magic. I think Antonio has suceeded better than anyone on TrekEarth or Treknature.
Regards, Pat

Linda a foto. Excelente a cor e a linha do horizonte.
