208 - Dolphin Leap

From 365 Project
Caught this dolphin leaping out of the water off Sandbridge Beach, Virginia. You can often see them surface close to shore, but they were jumping out of the water causing many oohs and ahs from beach goers. Canon 40D, 1/1000 sec @ f/5.0, ISO 200, 200mm focal length.

Edison Filament Light Blub

Image
