The Whale

Folklore and legends are usually traditional stories popularly regarded as the telling of historical events. When in the form of myths, they often involve some form of the supernatural. They have been with us for thousands of years and, because of this, folklore and legends form the basis of many religious beliefs, value systems, and the way we perceive our place in the world and our interaction with other animals. Humans have long revered whales and other animals in legends. For thousands of years they have been aligned with the gods, mythologized, and celebrated in art.

This is a photo collaboration between two friends. Jen @eelnej and BP @bradpuet paid a visit to a local beach in the Northwest where a Fin Whale was beached. The whale was hit by a ship and washed up on the shores of Seahurst Park in Burien, WA. Their visit wasn't just about the whale. It was about life, death, and the trials and tribulations of many people. It also occured on the same day of the Boston Marathon bombings. Click the link in our profile to read more about the legends of whales and how it relates to the lives we all live.
