The dolphins are out of focus, unless I need my eyes testing?
:shock: :shock: Surely you mean they are "soft focused" :lol:
No. Out of focus. Wrong shutter speed for an action shot I assume.

Nope. The shot was taken at 10 x Optical zoom. I then enlarged it by several multiples digitally. Will try and post the original when my laptop comes back from the menders.
I was on the deck of a small boat, on the rise and fall of a one metre swell. Wet through, cos I had just been in the sea, (Pacific Ocean), swimming with the dolphins. Holding on to the rail with one hand, and the camera with the other.
Shutter speed?? Hahahahaha!

Kudos on the sunset shot, i know how difficult they can be to get right.

It's a Lumix DMC-TZ10. My seond lumix, I left my last one on the Marbachjoch. It's actually a 12x Optical zoom, not a 10x. Takes good videos too. Took my Youtube ski vids with the previous Lumix.
I don't have a prob with sunset pics, just take a pic, then a sip of wine, take another pic, then a sip....., ad nauseum, then delete all except one!

Then, forgive me for saying it but.... you have been VERY lucky with that shot.

Not entirely lucky, I was hours swimming and taking photos, trying to get a good clean jumping-out-of-water pic of one dolphin.
It was beyond luck to get three, all in perfect composition. These kind of pics are normally taken in captive and training situations, not in the ocean.
I accept the point though.
Wonder what the chances are of getting a pic of three skiers, upside down and clear of the ground, unrehearsed? - )
