[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Taken on a 'swim with dolphins' expedition, from the boat. Hence, its not as sharp as I'd like. However, was the only photo I managed to press the button fast enough to capture a whole dolphin. These are dusky dolphins, smaller than the bottle-nosed, and perhaps more playful. On a 'swim with dolphins' cruise you get to snorkel and interact with the pod...the more you interact, the better the experience and coming eye to eye with a dolphin has to be one of the most powerful in the world.

Hi Fiona,

A great capture. What a action. POV, BG are good. DOF good be better, but i forgive you (-:. Colours are very naturel. I find it a very nice shot. Rgeards and TFS Bob

Hi Fiona,
A good capture despite the fuzziness.
I have lots of memories of good times with dolphins, most recently with the local Hectors dolphins I kayak/surf with.
Great stuff.
Cheers, Steve
