Not the greatest picture, we are just beginners learning how to use the sport finder.

But, I thought this was the coolest thing. The shark followed these little guys around just like in picture for a good 10 minutes, and never showed aggression.

At Bull Run, Bimini Bahamas.

and it is blue

Those little guys are Juvenile Bar Jacks and the shark isn't following them, they are riding his slip stream and waiting for tidbits of food. You'll see them in front of Mantas, Whale Sharks, and some stingrays.

Cool picture!

These are all great....thanks ya'll!

Wackodacko - as Jonathan said, it's a nautilus.

I kind of disapprove - the dive trip in question puts down a trap, drags them up from depth, releases them for people to see and photograph, then takes them down to 45-50m to allow them to descend further themselves... or be eaten. I feel bad about participating.

But it is a cool pic - sorry it's so big, should have reduced it a bit before attaching.

Dee, thanks for this information. These pictures are all great. Just makes me want to be back in the water working on more of the "Half-Fish" series.

I was mesmerized watching this and then noticed another reef shark swimming right under me, I could have touched him/her.

I managed to grab my sons fin, who had the camera, and signaled take this picture. But, alas, he signaled back "No Film".

How many others have missed the perfect photo op cause of no film?
