SWIMMING slowly towards the shore, a small group of bottlenose dolphins arrive for breakfast at a beach in Western Australia. The dolphins swim into shallow waters, just three metres from the beach, and eat fish from the hands of locals. The eye-opening encounter was captured by 47-year-old lawyer and photographer Andrea Izzotti at Monkey Mia beach, a popular tourist destination on the west coast of Australia.
