Dolphins in Ain Sokhna

Alright, I’ll be straight up about this: I am not a photographer, and I do not possess a camera with a pap style lens. I can be kind, however, so with my less that brilliant skills coupled with Mr S’s camera I captured the moment and will share.

We were sitting on the beach on Wednesday evening just around sunset, when suddenly Mr S pointed out, “Look, there are dolphins!”. Mrs Magoo here, couldn’t see them. Thinking it was going to go along the shooting star lines (that’s where someone points to a shooting star, the everybody else in the group, together with their babies, cats, dogs, hamsters and the man with the white stick looks up and says ‘WOOOooooow’! and I’m left dividing the vast desert sky into sections to search, utterly unable to see anything), when I spotted the fins gently arching in and out of the water.

Mesmorising.
