Dolphins frolicking in the wake.

We were on Boca Grande Island on the Florida Gulf Coast for a wedding. We were treated to a boat ride to a private island for lunch. On our way, a small group of dolphins played in our wake for about 10 minutes. The only camera I had with me was my Sony RX100-3. I could have used a larger telephoto. Nonetheless, I was able to get a couple of decent shots (after a bit of Lightroom improvement). The dolphins also did barrel roles just below the water, but it was impossible to get a decent picture of that. It was a great opportunity.

Nice images. I think the dolphins perform because they "know" it amuses the humans.

Those are the teenagers. The older ones are just "drafting" below the surface.
