Photographing the dolphins that reside around Kiawah Island, SC is pure joy. I have accompanied a well-known dolphin expert on a few boat rides and observing the dolphin's behavior as interpreted by Captain Chad had been incredible.
The dolphins seem to recognize his boat and come around to say hello and "show off" for us as we watch. It is amazing. I was lucky to catch these shots of a mother and calf playing together, "peeking" to check us out, and overall having a marvelous time on a beautiful South Carolina day.
