Eliot Crowley “Dolphin” 9/16/23

Setting out to go whale watching in the Santa Barbara Channel, it is inevitable that dolphins will be enjoying the bow wake of the boat. This is not unusual. But the day was slightly overcast softening the glare on the water, giving it a glassy look. I always enjoy seeing these magnificent creatures using their ability to swim at speeds fast enough to “catch” that wave of energy being displaced by the ship.
