Quote:Photo of the biggest Blue Whale I've seen to date I would like to know if anyone knows its origin and size? Because there are several versions about its origin and size?

- Photo was taken by Frank Hurley at Grytviken whaling station, Prince Edward Cove, South Georgia sometime between 1914-1917 this specimen was estimated to be 29.3 meters long or even possibly a little longer?
- On the 14th September 1912, a 29 meter long female Blue Whale was caught and harvested. It was found with its 7-meter-long calf off the coast of South Africa with its umbilical cord still attached; it appeared to have only just been born before it was killed?
