  5. Scary!!! But I guess as long as the diver holds his breathe and is not in anyway bleeding. He should be pretty safe near that shark :)

  9. I'd say that shark is thinking "ooooh, what a tasty looking tushy".

  10. Yikes, that's not what you want to see over your shoulder sneaking up behind you!

  12. Eeep! One of the many reasons I'm content to be a beach-comber and a wader. You'll NEVER get me to dive!

  13. Why do I have the theme from "Jaws" running through my head all of a sudden?

  14. Great shot. The sharks do look interest, as long as they keep a respectful distance.

    (We had the theme from Jaws in mind as well ;) )

  15. That's about as close as I'd ever care to get to a shark. Great image.

  17. Yeah...I think that's why I'll never do any real diving. I can live vicariously through other divers:)

    Priceless moment though...glad you captured it.

  19. Oh my! I'm not a fan of sneaky sharks but it did make for a great photo.

  20. WOW that would have scared me. Great shot

  21. I've read that when you're in open water, you're always within some small distance from a shark -- looks like pretty persuasive evidence of that claim!

  22. This would have scared the beejeezus out of me...I'll leave the scuba to you! :-) Thanks for stopping by today...

    This is a priceless photo - and what a great title!

  27. Aha, sneaky sharks are exactly the reason I won't be trying scuba diving soon.

  29. Hey, you can't just leave me hanging like that with no story to say what happened. LOL! I take it you didn't have any trouble out of it.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Hi 2Sweet - Sorry -- didn't mean to leave anybody hanging there in suspense. No, there was no problem at all. The shark sort of swam past that diver and went on its way. The diver was completely engrossed in taking a macro shot of something tiny and never even saw the shark. We told him about it later.
