Sharkwater, a photo from North-West, East

Photographer's Note

Great White Shark

Dyer Islands, Gansbaai– South Africa

I had a chance to witness the power of that great predator by experiencing a cage dive with Brian McFarlane and his team in Gansbaai. It’s a good thrill for adrenaline junkies!

By the way, I advice you watch “Sharkwater” if you still haven’t.

Hallo Fulya,

Dit is een foto van een zeer hoge kwaliteit, een foto dat je maar weinig tegen komt, maar ook een foto dat boekdelen spreekt en tijdloos is.

Samengevat: de foto is nu al een klassieker.

Vriendelijke groeten,
Robert

You are a brave soul Fulya Hnm to go into the cage. If you had an underwater camera we would be looking at a different POV. Still, it does make a nice photo just seeing the shark from above.Best wishes. Klaudio.

Hello Fulya,
Wow, you've experienced a cage dive with the shark nearby! You dare!
The shark is very clearly and completely visible here in the beautiful green water.
The arriving boat is placed excellent on the picture.
Best regards, Paul

You actually have many beautiful photos in your gallery.
This is great. Well atken, and interesting of course !
I really like it (and the postproduction is ok !)
Cheers Stefano

A great and most interesting shot Fulya!
I think it had not to be ease to capture the shark so closely and so clearly! and you had a good idea to include the tourists boat which gives the scale and adds a colourful focal point.
(The tilted and curved horizon could be easily corrected in PS)
Diving in the cage had to be a terrific experience!

TFS,
Donato
