Good eye. It does look like a whale.

Very good interpretation! I see a mother and child together. Very cool. Maybe a little more shallow depth of field could blur out the background just a tiny bit.

Reminds me of "Shark Tales" :) I think leaving the "whale" alone, would've been perfect. 8.

Unusual. Nicely framed.

That does look like a whale! Great picture. I would lke to see that shot with a different framing. You could have skipped the lower rock formation and went with more open space on the right.

Fits the challenge very well. Good composition. Nicely done. Makes me think of Moby Dick.

Neat rock! Love the background colors. Only nitpick is that it would put more emphasis on the whale if you cropped out the light color rock in the lower left.

Moby! It's Moby! I should have looked at the photo before reading your give away title. Lovely background. My first 10. Congratulations on a great shot.

whale of a rock :)
maybe a rectangular crop (i.e. without the lower rock) would focus more on the subject.
