Port Isabel, Texas. This place was in pretty rough shape when I photographed it. I'm wondering what it'll look like tomorrow..:( Several of you reached out, and I think you for that. The weather man says we'll have 50 mile and hour winds and about 12 inches of rain. I live close to a creek that floods easily. So, I'm a little worried. We've already had some rain and wind.
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

One from a couple of years ago when I did a photo tour of Kangaroo Island in South Australia. I love the 'skin' of water on the dolphin on the left as it breaks the surface.
Finally(!!) got my camera back from being cleaned and so can get out again and shoot some new pictures - weather permitting!

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.
from a recent trip to mull we came across a pod of common dolphins and a minke whale
unfortunateley no whale pictures
With heartfelt and genuine thanks for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day, be well, keep your eyes open, appreciate the beauty surrounding you, enjoy creating and stay safe! ❤️❤️❤️

In dophin jumping skill I think this one scored close to a 10! We had watched a sperm whale catching its breath after a deep dive for 45 minutes then found a dolphin school. Seen from a Whale Watch boat off Kaikoura, a small town on the East coast in the north of NZ's South Island.
We are on holiday on our way to spend time with family. Internet time is limited but I will try to visit some friends.
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/

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.
The Dolphin Inn at Kingston, Devon,
The main building of the pub was originally three 16th Century cottages before being joined together and converted. The cosy interior features exposed stonework and pleasant low lighting.
The whitewashed building opposite the pub is now an accommodation block and is about the ideal distance to go from for a pint! (Or to wander back to after some)
The dolphin breached the water with a corkscrew twist to give additional height. It reached about 5m clear of the water, just avoiding a belly flop on landing! All this with the Ceredigion coastline in the background. A fabulous encounter...
