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.

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?

Thanks Eb. I did not use a filter. It was after sunset and the light was low. Its with flash.
Regards, Ahmed


Ahmed Ismail   {K:19853} 8/14/2007
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



Willem Arend   {K:734} 8/16/2007
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.

Strange effect


Ahmed Ismail   {K:19853} 8/18/2007
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

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
