Dolphins

Travelling from the mainland to the Outer Hebrides, you will often see dolphins swimming alongside the ferry.

Trying to get a photograph of them is really difficult as they tend to appear and disappear in an instant – and you are invariably on the wrong side of the ferry.

These were taken on a ferry from South Uist to Oban, and luckily it was a very calm day, which meant that it was easier than normal to see them approaching the boat.

Even so, out of all the dolphins that jumped, this was the only one that I managed to get a shot of.
