School of Dolphins

We were promised sightings of a few dolphins on a boat trip around the Algarve in Portugal. Expecting only to see a few distant fins floating around in the distance, I was shocked when I captured this. It is just one of literally thousands of photos that day. Truly a once in a life time opportunity.
