UPY Portrait - Highly Commended
'Dolphins portrait'
Tetsuji Akimoto
I took this photo while swimming with friendly dolphins for more than 10 minutes in Toshima island, Japan. This pair came close to me several times for trying to get my attention, clearly wanting to interact. It is the one of most interesting behaviours I have captured during my observation of dolphins for over 10 years.
Judge's comment: What a joyful dolphin portrait. I love the interaction between the pair and how the main dolphin is swimming around its friend to smile and blow bubbles for the camera.
