Congratulations to Nigel Ollett. This amazing photo of a dolphin doing what comes naturally has won this month’s Riviera Owners Photo and Video Competition. Aptly titled Morning Play, it was captured by Nigel Ollett aboard L’epicier, his Riviera 525 SUV, at Great Barrier Island in New Zealand’s Hauraki Gulf near Auckland.
Mr Ollett took the photo from the boarding platform as a pod of dolphins tracked with L’epicier for five playful minutes.
“Our friends were amazed at how many and how close the dolphins were,” says Mr Ollett. “It’s always great to be able to capture and share the experience of boating.”
