Amazing photograph. I see they are learning at a young age to circle their prey. I like the colours which cetainly add to this photograph. Take care...Brian

Hi Willem, I see the place you have pointed! Because of the lack of color here the initial conversion to b&w was very washed out like. So I tried to adjust the levels a bid to bring out the sharks a bit. Guess that has made the fin look that way!! Thanks so much Willem. Regards, Ahmed

Hi Ahmed! Thanks for posting the color original of this picture. You did right in making it B&W -- however, this caused me to see a large, weird-looking item on the back of that shark, sort of a vegetable covered in a roll of mud, which now turns out to be the shark's left fin and part of its back under a bit of water. I find it interesting to note that the absence of color information caused my brain to incorrectly interpret what I was seeing... :) So you can see what I mean, I'm attaching an image showing the lower right shark in both versions of your picture.

Thanks Willem! Do you mean the fins? Here is the actual image. It was taken at night with flash. I chose b&w because the colors werent good in this one. Regards, Ahmed

Great shot! I can see the sharks moving! Good choice to go with black & white here. What is that on the back of the shark on the lower right?

Oh, so these were those "friendly" sharks you were talking about... I can't say I've ever met a friendly shark. Of course, never met a shark, period.
This is a great shot, I am always amazed at what you can see there from above water.
