Well, it's obvious that some folks just didn't know how hard this image was to get. The water droplets tell that the focus was as sharp as it could be. The water was moving around quite a bit on you, and it must have indeed been a choppy ride.

Wonder did you protect that Canon 300D in the boat?

Keep up the good shooting.

I hesitate to make comments since I am obviously not an expert, but here goes: I thought the subject was excellent, but slightly out of focus. I can only imagine how difficult it would be to get this in sharp focus!

Little out of focus, could have used a faster shutter probably. But bonus points for difficulty of capture!

On this is cool, i wanted to take a picture like this for wildlife, but well they appear here only in jan/feb time. good timing. but it looks like its not very sharp, the focus is a little bit off from the tail.

Oh, nice one! Hard to get, and you nailed it. (I want one of these images so bad...) You should do well in this Challenge.

I imagine this was a rather tricky shot to take in a moving boat with a subject that is moving as well. Just a shame it is a little bit blurry because your timing is really good

No doubt here, this is a part. A very exciting capture of a lovely creature.

I guess it not what you can see and shot every day...so its good capture but quality could wish better.

Good job on this photo. With all the white on the tail this is a hard shot to get.

Who doesn't love a whale's tail? How on earth did you get this picture?

Great scene! This would be a winner if it were sharp. I understand how conditions were wrong, but it's a shame because the shake or low resolution really hurts this.
