Delightful, this really takes me back to the days when bullshit was done with photoshop instead of photoslop.

    Those orcas are aiming right at the correct place, with right the correct posture. IDK what is an expression of despair from a shark, but it could quite well be this.

    Are you sure this isn't a frame from a real video?

    If that shot is real, then it deserves a Pulitzer. The fact that both orcas have identical markings is suspicious.The Shark is high-contrast and in focus while the orcas are soft and blurry. I'm not an expert, it just looks phony to me.

    But like I said, phony in the Photoshop way of old.

    Orca have very similar markings and are usually identified by fin/tail shape and proportions. This is very common and well documented behaviour for them to engage in. I'm not going to get into debating blur lol, looks pretty consistent with amount of motion and characteristic of underwater photography to me
