	....but you’ll have sharpened up a bit and checked all your camera settings.



	I’m not bothered in the least. Who needs to photograph more dolphins anyway? I don’t



	I do.



	Beside Barry Buddon’s High Light


	The nature of the light this day made a drastic difference to the image depending on the direction of viewing. Looking into the light was unusually bright and yet it was so diffuse it was difficult even for the camera’s autofocus to work properly, let alone to get a correct exposure.







	Here he is. Sparky, looking well protected.



	Sparky again taking the photocall with his pod.



	Then some clown starts jumping backwards and landing upside down.....



	No one can do this entirely alone... ...



	Flipper and tails party at Broughty Ferry











	Never mind us - look at the Hilltown multis in the distance, they’re all being blown up on Sunday



	He He he....



	Tayport in the distance



	“Tayport in the Distance” Oh come on for goodness sake, this commentary’s getting laboured and SOooo boring.



	Eat this, if you vote for tuna fish


	Blown up on Sunday, blown up on Sunday.


	Then Badger went through both bridges to meet Marigot coming back from a trip to Perth

	Thanks to Lindsay Martin and his friends for initiating this trip.


	Taymara is a charity run entirely by volunteers on a not for profit basis for the benefit of the local community.


	We aim to provide a community boat service and maritime experience through sightseeing and dolphin watching trips which allow great opportunities to see the river and its wildlife as it should be seen - from the water!


	In addition, we aim to provide sea training for individuals and vulnerable groups who might normally be excluded from this experience. We also work closely with organisations who provide recovery and rehabilitation programmes which encompass drug and alchohol abuse.
