these are Orca, also called Killer Whale, nothing to do with dolphins which are grey and much smaller:
a good capture with sharp focus;

    OOps.Sorry for the Goof up! I think I got all mixed up. Thanks very much for pointing it out and taking time to review this. I really appreciate it.

Ohhhh... My memory races back to seeing a Dolphin show in California. I took so many pictures (and then it was film).

Nice focus and DOF to retain sharp clarity / focus on all subjects. I like the frame and presentation and the image is well balanced - almost symmetrical. Very nice. Kathy

I think this is a great entry for this contest.I like the POV and how you captured the one trainer speaking to the Orca. Great clarity and a very good amount of the color blue.
Hope the Orcas bring you good luck~

Great colors. The dolphins seem to be very concentrated . Very good framing. Good composition. Good exposure.

You are so right when you say the water is a very bright blue. Also I hadn't notice it until I read your notes but the blue uniforms and the fact that there are two dolphins, and two trainers a man and woman does even out the picture.

Good one.

The shot is good, i.e. the clarity and color are right on the mark. The framing is good but though I might crop a couple of centimeters from the top. Here is a suggestion: Paint this and take the second figure, the woman and move her to an approaching position so that she is joining the first trainer and giving deserved audience to the performance of dolphin one. Her image would be saying, ¨Wow, let me hear more of what you´re saying, or singing¨. Just a thought, i.e. a physical expression of deep respect and awe for the musicality/vocality of dolphins. eh?

    Wow! Fantastic suggestion. But I wonder if I would be able to do it. I will give it a shot. I can do the cropping. I thought that I should show more of blue!:) I did crop the top portion a bit.I took the shot from a distance! I appreciate your nice review. Thank you so much for your support. Glad you liked it.

Comment from jrconrad


Nice vacation snap shot. The balance is an interesting idea. I think, however, the picture looks too spread out. Also the focus could be sharper.
