I photograph wild Indian ocean bottlenose dolphins in Mikuraisland, Tokyo, Japan. Their actions are so mysterious and interesting that I never get tired of watching them. This dolphin stood quietly on the sandy bottom of the sea. It remained motionless for a while and started swimming while standing, using its tail deftly. I love watching dolphins do weird things that aren't just swimming.
