Description
I Couldnt stand it any longer! I had to post it! I just had too! I feel horrible though, because really from Keyo's head to his dorsal was really inspired by 's photo [link] and I completely forgot that I had to ask her first to use it, but in all truth, I did this from memory of that photo and if you look at both of them they are really different. In hers, Orkid's head is bent slightly and in mine Keyo's head is straight up. The one pectoral fin is not slanted either unlike Orkid's and the bottom half was completely made up on my own. Ruka, if your reading this I am terribly sorry and it wont happen again. IF you wish I will delete this from my gallery just say the word and it will be done!Anyways, this picture was also inspired by this [link] with hudson looking at his reflection in the water, except the pose is different and it slightly more detailed and darker. Also I really wanna make this into a print but again, I will have to wait and see what Ruka says first....
Completely inspired by [link] and
[link]

Oh, I just adore Orcas, and this picture captures the beauty of one perfectly. The pose is very nice, and the reflection is impressive! The whale's expression is just too sweet.
Wonderful work!

well... i mean, a whale's head is generaly the same shape as other whales, and the only really defining things about them are the markings so you cant change that much to make them different...
i was supposed to say "and how much can you change a whale's head to look different?"

Actually, if you look as some orca photos, their heads do have different shapes. Like Orkids is very curvey. Its just sometimes very hard to tell
