Wow. Seeing these fish in context of something more familiar (like the vehicle and the diver), really hits home what their propotions really are. Massive! Beautiful illustration work on each of these, they have a great sense of form, even without seeing their right fins, they come across as fully fleshed out and existing on a 3 dimensional plane.

En verdad, blancos seguro que seran muy poquitos, así que estan dependientes del atún que pasa... Y los tiburones-ballena, son regulares en Madeira y Azores pero aca en el Continente son muy pocos también. Hay un solo registro.

son de aguas mas calidas, por el plancton, pero son enormeees... tambien tuvo la suerte de ver ballenas, y cachalotes, una vez, tambien recordaba un atun gigante (en su primer viaje, 1945) que pescaron en la zona ecuatorial, todo el resto del viaje comieron atun de todas las formas posibles, media cinco metros
