[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I found it difficult to take this photo. It was a dolphin show at Ushaka Marine world. Ushaka is the newest theme park in Durban and consists of an aquarium, waterworld. restaurant area and shops. This was taken at the dolphin show.

To anticipate when they are going to jump and take the photo at the right moment, focusing etc was very diffcult. Out of about 50 shots only 2 or 3 came out well.

Hope you like it.

i hate to see animals in captivity specially marine animals...that being said this photo is good.

You captured the dolphins at the perfect time and the composition is good. I would suggest rotating a bit because as is it's tilted to the left. Intense capture

Good capture, I like how you have them all out of water simultaneously! Have a good week.

Hola Annette
Bonita captura de los delfines en plena actuación, conseguiste perfectamente detener la ejecución.

Bien hecho

A nearly perfect symetric shot!
I have a french title for it : ZOUPLA!
I agree with the difficulties related in your comment.
Dolphins are fast movers!
