This Post is Fiction. The Photo is Real.

swimming dolphin close up
This little guy I spotted while free-diving off the coast of Florida in 2008. To protect my camera from the water, I wrapped it in saran wrap and cut a hole for the lens to poke out. I swam out about a mile from shore and used my ECHO Locator to find a pod of dolphins. This dolphin in particular was very friendly and even allowed me to hold onto his dorsal fin while he towed me! We swam together for about two hours, until my camera memory card was full. I then saw a whale shark cruising by and it towed me most of the way back to shore.
