Outstanding

I don't why this hasn't been noticed more. This is a classic shot that speaks volumes.

This is a superb shot. I say this because firstly I love dolphins, porpoises and whales, but secondly it speaks to me about the wonderful relationship man has with these creatures. Well Done. BTW is there anyway I could buy a print of this off you.

Excellent composition makes this stand out from typical Vancouver Aquarium photos :)

Breathtaking

Words can not explain what this picture does to my senses. It fills me with awe and serenity. I can almost feel what you must have experienced taking the photo.

Absolutely wonderful

Stunning

I don't think I'll get close to what this picture makes me feel. It makes me want to cry. Thank you.

Great

The isolation of both subjects is very cool. There is a lonely feeling. Very nice.
