Varnish & Dolphins

Do you know how hard it is to get a photo of a dolphin that's playing with the boat while you're trying to varnish the rail?  This dolphin along with her baby dolphin were cavorting around our boat, sometimes bumping the boat & under the dock next to us most of the morning.  Every time I'd put the varnish brush down & pick up the camera, they'd disappear.  Put down the camera & pick up the varnish brush, and they're literally within touching distance.  They pinned a fish against the stern piling while David was wet-sanding, not 4 feet away.  Amazing and so unphotographable.... (is that a word?).  :)

    One of my hobbies is photography.  I'm still trying to learn to use my DSLR camera.  

    If you're curious what kind of DSLR,  I have an entry level Canon Rebel XSi.
