Description Kiska on the beach at Friendship Cove*which should be called Splash Cove or Orca Cove because they no longer allow you to pet the orcas no more>.<* Giving the people who didnt want to get wet a good chance to get close and take good pictures. OKAY now for THE BIG QUESTION! Was this A: tooken with my beautuful Fugi Film s9000 Digital SLR or B: Crappy Sony HandyCam?

I agree I feel bad for her and wish Marineland would move her now that it's not legal to bring in a companion for her from another park.

I completely agree! One quick question: Is Kiska female or male?

it totally sucks that you cannot pet the orcas there anymore
i remember when you could do that when i was younger
went there last week, asked the guy if you could pet them and he looked at me as if i was stupid for asking the question
great shot!

I love orcas!!! They're so nice, but, here in Brazil, there's no aquariums (I think is like this we write it...sorry, my english sucks _ _' ) and there's no orcas too...because of it, I can't see so much "water animals" (ok, my english is a tragedie ) but, I lost the subject... anyway, AWESOME pic!! ;D

It would look much prettier if you cropped it so that most of the water below her head was gone. Also a good way to fix a not-so fab composition. Lovely colors though. Soft and pretty!
