But this is no ordinary dolphin. This is Becky. And she’s the star of PADI’s newest certification card — Flippin' Between Two Worlds. Becky is a solitary dolphin that seems to treat people as part of her pod. After sharing the water with Becky for more than an hour, photographer Kellon Spencer captured this rare moment of mutual curiosity as she swam by. This limited-edition certification card is now available as both a physical card and an eCard while supplies last.   Get This Limited Edition Card   Meet the Photographer   Kellon Spencer is a photographer, filmmaker and naturalist who uses adventure storytelling to bring the natural world to a wider audience — and the photographer behind Flippin' Between Two Worlds.
