Slick surfing

Hi,

I was lucky enough to be at Merewether beach late this afternoon when this pod of dolphins started surfing. This is probably one on my better ones. I'm not sure if it works better with or without the ship in the background.

They are not easy to catch out of the water, they go very fast and it is not easy to anticipate where they will be next.

The human surfers in the water were pretty impressed with the dolphins.

C&C welcome,

cheers,

André

Nice capture. For me the first shot with the ship works better as it gives some reference to the locale.

Great timing Andre! I know from personal experience just how hard it is to catch these guys in full flight. Well done!
