Nice Lunch Rainbow !

Hi Everyone,

I had a VERY rough and windy session with the dolphins this morning at Chanonry, my colleagues Judy and Stine from head office joined me on the beach and were thrilled to see around seven dolphins hunting in the surf. Good old Rainbow had just caught a cracker of a fish and I managed to get a few sharp frames with her and the salmon hanging out of her mouth.

I was very pleased at how many good shots I was able to get through all the choppy waves and spray, my new camera body is behaving itself beautifully although trying to keep the big telephoto lens steady this morning in the strong wind after three hours made my left arm feel like a bit of overcooked spaghetti !

Best Wishes,

Charlie.
