Hi Mary-Ella, Carolyn, Paula, Murry and Darren. Thank you!

Yes, I just love dolphins. They look so graceful when they swim. And they always appear to be smiling.

Some of them came near to the water's edge and just floated there, appearing to make eye contact and smile at folks. But we were told that's how they look when they're napping! I prefer to think they're smiling at me. :-)

I appreciate your comments. :-) #154492

You caught the dolphins in perfect composition. It appears that there could be a wave of them following closely behind in formation. #357422
