Dolphin pair, off Dominica, French West Indies, 2010

This pair of rare Fraser’s Dolphins was running just off the bow our small whale-watching craft. They were so close to us that I made this image with a relatively short 90mm medium telephoto focal length. The pair breaks water in perfect natural rhythm, exactly side by side, and throwing forward nearly the exact amount spray, an example of instinctive rhythm. Our guide told us that he had not seen this species of Dolphin in the waters off Dominica since 2006.
