Such a serene and peaceful photo! The blues are awesome, and every aspect of the pod is captured perfectly, like their unity with each other.
Must have been awesome to be so close

Thanks! I had no tanks, so I was trying to dive to a certain depth to shoot from below. It seems they appreciated my efforts and came close to look at me.

the water gives the dolphins great contrast...
they look smooth, and the entire composition just gives it a feeling of calm and gracefulness

Yes, true. They were back from a hunting night in the open sea. They were relaxing, playing, slowly swimming around. It took a while before they accepted me, but after I felt at ease between them, with a deep peace inside.

They are gorgeous, I love their colours. These ones are quite sharp-nosed

This is a very common dolphin, not as big as the 'bottlenose' dolphin (the one in 'The Eye' photo). They make incredible jumps and it seems that they really enjoy playing!
