This is a good capture. Your white balance appears to be way off, the whole photo has a bluish cast. Watch your horizon this one tilts to the left, with an action shot like this it's hard to get it right in the camera, but this is easily fixed in post processing.

Great moment here that you captured, Danny. Having the boat with the birds sitting almost as if watching the dolphin show is really enjoyable.
EOSthree is right about your WB being off, and the correction he made looks good.
Well done, Danny. Getting the right moment is more important than most everything else, but having the other stuff like clarity, composition, lighting adds alot. you have many of these in this photo.
The only little bit of something that i wish were different is that you had panned your camera a bit more to the right to get some more boat and move the dolphin into the left area of the frame and out of center.
well done.

Reason: Sticking as Featured Photo. August 2, 2010
Yes, great catch here. I like the color adjustment, but I would also crop almost the entire left half of the photo out, as it adds absolutely nothing to the image and makes it seem unbalanced. I like how the boat is slightly blurred.
