Mother and baby wild Indian ocean bottlenose dolphin. The baby's body is whitish and small, and the appearance of peeking from under the mother is very cute. And the mother swimming with a beautiful posture looked divine.

I was fascinated by the underwater world and wanted to capture that excitement, so I started photography. In recent years, I have been interested in bottlenose dolphins and have been visiting them frequently. Wild dolphins are very beautiful and full of curiosity, showing various ecological behaviors.
