16th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Leaping Risso's Dolphin
Risso’s dolphins are not known for a playful nature. They are generally quite businesslike, just traveling and/or eating. On this day however, they were surfing in the large swell and leaping with abandon near our boat. Fun to see them having fun.
