They are all in 10MB Sony Raw .arw format right now. If you can read these
( Photoshop should be able to ) ,
they are at http://ideaphore.com/hfxhbr.zip (86MB, zip folder created in
Win7). There does appear to be a wake in a few of the photos, and one shows
an apparent mottled area behind the fin. The first photos were taken around
8:08 showing it near Georges Island, the next set were taken around 8:16,
where it is closer to the container pier.

Unfortunately these were taken handheld with a 300mm telephoto from the top
of the Alderney ferry, probably over a kilometer away. But even then you
can see the body and fin.

I could convert them to jpgs or gifs tomorrow if the raw images are not
usable.
