Part of the Salt River herd of wild horses.

Could be worse, could have a photo of it floating away downstream.

Pimple.

It's both, depending on where you're looking. Uploads are named as the uploader submitted them. The links to those photos for urls are numeric, however. I've got stuff posted all over BYC that's named files.

Those are some great shots. Thanks for sharing them with us. (adds a reminder to get an underwater camera housing to his list of vacation prep)

Lovely. I have soooo many questions! Not about the photo, more about your orca knowledge. How can you ID this as Noah from just the dorsal and part of the body markings? You have to have been doing this for a while? Or are you googling furiously to ID them after you get shots? How often do...
