I just LOVE this shot! Definitely (one of) my favourite from the whole trip and from all my 3000+ photos I took :love: So close, such clear water, a unique angle and all the details - YOU CAN EVEN SEE ITS WHISKERRRS! Gosh these guys are so gorgeous it's almost hard to believe. Also, the title in relation to the photo: all dolphins have asymmetrical heads when it comes to their blowhole. Perhaps not best visible in this shot, but their blowhole is situated a little left of the middle, instead of being straight centred.
