Smile Dolphins

This is a picture that a friend's brother took from their boat that he thought turned out quite well. Any comments would be appreciated

Great shot, it almost looks as if they are flying.

Cheers,

Tell your friends brother that he is one lucky guy to have experienced this, I have always wanted to see this in person. I just love dolphins. Brilliant capture too.

I agree with your friend's brother (Bruce?). I think it turned out quite well too. In fact I think it turned out fabulously!

Thanks for sharing your friend's brother's shot. Now how about some more of yours?

Thanks Jim - on that spur I've uploaded some shots I took while up at Coffs Harbour

Bruce is my friend - he's had this photo for a while now and has been proud of his brother's shot and thought it would be good to get it out to the wider world

Nice. Beautiful subjects and that water is so clear as to be almost not even there.
Very nice shot.
