The black and white helps isolate the bullsharks against the sand. When these three female bullsharks were approaching at different speeds, I anticipated where I might catch them close to one another.

Humpback whales are among the largest marine animals that have ever existed and must be treated with extra respect. Often, the best interactions will be from a boat, dangling your camera over the gunwale if they swim in close enough.

Caption: 
Offshore dolphins portray their personalities in unique ways. Rough-toothed dolphins have a certain prehistoric look and don’t often encounter freedivers. They can become quite curious, using their extra-flexible neck to investigate newcomers to their environment. They are also one of the main enemies of tuna fishermen, capable of filleting a caught fish while it is still on the hook.

Dropping the angle of view and capturing the whip coral in the background with such a low f-stop created a very smooth and textured swath of color behind our common subject. In my imaginative mind I see a goby riding a comet!.. No comments please..
