Dolphins

I've finally had a chance to edit some dolphin video I shot last year. This was all shot in about a 20 minute span about 30 miles west of the Dry Tortugas, in about 200 feet of water. They are Atlantic Spotted Dolphins, I'd estimate that there were about 60-80 of them.

Hopefully, if I am posting this right and your computer can play it, you'll see it in YouTube's alleged HD viewer. The video is actually a lot better in real HD than here on the web (so stop by after work and I'll show it to you.. :-). I especially hate how the compression artifacts show up in the blue water. Ugh. Can't wait for the day when we get true lossless video on the web. Hint: Unless you have a really fast internet connection, press the pause button as soon as the video starts to play, then let it fully download before pressing play.
