What a fun shot - well done, Todd.

While sailing Galveston Bay, we often enjoyed dolphin "shows". Occasionally, one would swim under our boat only to bob up beside us, bellow a loud blow, and startle the stink out of us.

Thanks Jer! The interesting thing about these dolphins was the way we attracted them to the boat. We played loud music and they showed up within a few minutes. We were on a sailing ketch, and the crew said that the dolphins love the music.
