Have been on dolphin trips down in the Gulf Coast and it is so exciting to see them in their natural habitat as they swim and jump and spin. A remarkable sight that will never be forgotten.
Such a beuatiful action shot here and I love the way your picture really captures all the thrill of this beauty as he leaps and spins. The way you got the action of the water really intensifies the action. Gorgeous colors and details. Beautiful work my friend. #9105246
