This is an old pic from 2003, but it’s certainly one worth seeing if you haven’t before. Here’s your money quote:
“The picture is of an Antarctic minke whale taken from the bow of a ship,” said AAD principal research scientist Dr Nick Gales. “The white bits in the photo are pieces of ice-floe, the stream of pinky colour behind the whale is a faecal plume – a.k.a. “poo” – the large circle in the water is indeed the physical eruption of the whale’s flatulence.”
Thanks for the link, Greg.

I wish we as Iranian could shot such pics and upload them in the net but ufurotnnately our government strictly restricts Internet and the access to the net. We cannot send our words because we donot live in a free world. How lucky you are people of the russia that freely express your thoughts and images. Thanks for your sincere devotion.
