A Bryde's Whale. Apparently, it's quite rare to photograph a breaching Bryde's Whale.

Or, maybe, if you're German, a Bryde-al Vhale.

Hahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaa!! I kill me sometimes...

The whole whale looks like a penis.

Zen? you obviously haven't seen me naked.

Gravdigr · 07-08-2012, 01:50 PM

What? Whales don't have foreskin?

Not the Jewish ones.

Gravdigr · 07-08-2012, 04:56 PM

Jewish whales...pff...their yarmulkes would be huuuge.

And cover the blowhole.

That is one stupid-looking fish.

Explanation: Engraved in rock, these ancient petroglyphs are abundant in the Teimareh valley, located in the Zagros Mountains of central Iran. They likely tell a tale of hunters and animals found in the middle eastern valley 6,000 years ago or more, etched by artists in a prehistoric age. In the night sky above are star trails etched by the rotation of planet Earth during the long composite exposure made with a modern digital camera. On the left, the center of the star trail arcs is the North Celestial Pole (NCP), the extension of Earth's axis into space, with Polaris, the North Star, leaving the bright, short, stubby trail closest to the NCP. But when these petroglyphs were carved, Polaris would have made a long arc through the night. Since the Earth's rotation axis precesses like a wobbling top, 6,000 years ago the NCP was near the border of the constellations Draco and Ursa Major, some 30 degrees from its current location in planet Earth's sky.

Explanation: What created this unusual hole in Mars? The hole was discovered by chance on images of the dusty slopes of Mars' Pavonis Mons volcano taken by the HiRISE instrument aboard the robotic Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter currently circling Mars. The hole appears to be an opening to an underground cavern, partly illuminated on the image right. Analysis of this and follow-up images revealed the opening to be about 35 meters across, while the interior shadow angle indicates that the underlying cavern is roughly 20 meters deep. Why there is a circular crater surrounding this hole remains a topic of speculation, as is the full extent of the underlying cavern. Holes such as this are of particular interest because their interior caves are relatively protected from the harsh surface of Mars, making them relatively good candidates to contain Martian life. These pits are therefore prime targets for possible future spacecraft, robots, and even human interplanetary explorers.

Please indulge me with these 9 pics.

They were taken by my G-son on his ODFW job in NE Oregon.
