Linda Syms
Wow fantastic capture.
Werner Padarin replied
thanks Linda – for a while I had been despairing of a good shot as these two had positioned themselves slightly ahead of the boat, so all I got was their rear view – luckily they dropped back for a while.
dennis wingard

Werner Padarin replied
thankyou very much Dennis (and I thank the dolphins for being in the right place at the right time ;-)

Werner Padarin replied
thankyou Karen – very glad you like it
Anne Smyth
stunning image, great wave action (of course great dolphin action) and beautiful muted color
Werner Padarin replied
Thankyou Anne – of course the muted colour couldn’t be otherwise – that day was very overcast and quite often spitting rain
whalegeek

Beautiful capture!
Werner Padarin replied
thanks ER – was a bit hesitant about submitting this one as it doesn’r actualy show the coastline (the shot was taken about 100m off-shore)
