After our swim with the wild dolphins in Queen Charlotte Sound, a couple of the more social dolphins accompanied us and rode the wake for half of our trip back to the docks.

gotta love those guys! Great shot! :D
Thanks, Stella! Thanks for visiting.
How fun! Wonderful close up.
Thanks!
beautiful photo and animal!
You are so lucky!!!! :-)
You’re absolutely right- I was very lucky. Lucky to get close up to these animals. They are so beautiful.
Did you take this? Absolutely fantastic!
Yep, jfb. I took it. Took a lot of tries, too. It was the only frame that came out this clear and with the dolphin in sight.
This seems like a cool water ride!
It was! I’d so do it again
Fantastic capture! Love it!
Thanks, cecelia!
An amazing shot given the speed at which they swim.
Thanks! They are indeed fast and so beautifully graceful.
one of my favorite animals ever.i did a project on dolphins when i was in the 5th grade and from that moment on ive always wanted to swim with one.. one day ;)

I hope you have your chance to swim with them! It was a longtime dream come true for me.
What a wonderful photo! Thank goodness I subscribe to your blog or I might have missed it. :)
