Capturing a dolphin in mid-jump was very challenging, but they gave me the opportunity when they kept racing alongside the boat playfully. I set the zoom lens to 100mm (as little as possible) to increase the field of view. I then tried timing a series of bursts, anticipating when they would jump. A little luck and a little skill combined to give me this awesome image. The spray off the boat, visible as white dots in the lower right, only added to the feeling of the image. Atlantic Ocean, about 30 miles west of Cape Town, South Africa

Working as a seaman, sometimes you can see them playing in front of ships bow.

Dolphins frolicking off the coast of Oxnard CA.

Dolphin Beach can usually be spotted from a fair distance away by the colourful kites that are being flown above it.

Long-beaked common dolphins are gregarious and are often seen ‘porpoising' at the water surface, breaching and bow-riding for extended periods of time. They are also highly vocal and like the short-beaked common dolphin, can be heard whistling to each other when they are above the surface of the water. They typically travel in large social groups numbering between 10 and 50 dolphins.

These are the remnants of the D-day embarkation piers and always make for an interesting subject

 

This was also one of my first tries with the ND10 filter for some LE

Ripple caused by June, a well-know wild dolphin who followed some fish into a suburban river outlet one morning. I went to see her after work, when she was still there. I found it too hard to photograph her as her surfacing was too quick, and she wasn't showing off any more.

 

She was not perturbed by the experience and had even been performing for the crowd, doing tricks that she had learnt from a released ex-Marineland dolphin, like tail-walking.

Two Common Dolphins, of the Cornish Coast at Padstow

 

The common dolphin is the name given to two species (and possibly a third) of dolphin making up the genus Delphinus.

 

Prior to the mid-1990s, most taxonomists only recognised one species in this genus, the common dolphin Delphinus delphis. Modern cetologists usually recognise two species — the short-beaked common dolphin, which retains the systematic name Delphinus delphis, and the long-beaked common dolphin Delphinus capensis.

 

The common dolphin is not the dolphin of popular imagination despite its name; that distinction belongs to the bottlenose dolphin due to its widespread use in marine parks and its appearance in the television series Flipper.However, this dolphin was the most frequently represented in the art and literature of ancient Greece and Rome.

got this little beauty this morning.after last nights sunset i had a hinch that we might get a good sunrise.it didnt let me down.

Seen from the shore at Richardson Beach Park, Kalanianaole Ave, Hilo, Island of Hawaii [Big Island], Hawaii.

Info: A group of dolphins is called a pod. A pod usually is formed of around 12 dolphins, and it is the usual social group of dolphins. > www.dolphins-world.com/what-is-a-group-of-dolphins-called/

The dolphin gull is native to southern Chile and Argentina, and the Falkland Islands, I found it in Ushuaia, the southernmost city in Argentina.

Montego Bay - Jamaica

[https://www.flickr.com/photos/stevebalcombe] reminded me today that I've shared very few Dolphin images on here, my bad! Back in my uni days I worked for AK Wildlife Cruises, this meant that I got to see Dolphins multiple times a week... It was a hard life.

On the way out to photograph whooping cranes we saw this dolphin out in the bay. This group didin't seem to be very playful, and we only saw one surface this once.

Always good to know how to swim...

Aboutme

Had an amazing experience encountering a superpod of thousands of Northern Right Whale Dolphins and Pacific White-Sided Dolphins grouped together in Monterey Bay, CA.

This oil platform was the scene of a terrible accident in 1983.

Dolphin swimming in the Bahamas

Common Dolphins are usually uncommon in Monterey Bay but this is an El Niño year with warmer waters than usual, and there are thousands of them further north than usual. This is the rarer oceanic form that used to be known as Long-beaked Common Dolphin but DNA studies of the various populations have shown that they are not a genetically distinct species, but that each long-beaked population is most closely related to their nearest population of Short-beaked Common Dolphins. I thought that the head of this leaping Dolphin stood out well against the splash of a recently-dived Dolphin.

On a time of this season that were there problaby more than 1000 common dolphins
