tiger portrait

taken while open diving with tiger sharks in south africa

Parvinbhai! Okay so this just a little bit freaky right? I'd love to see his/her result after shooting so close. It's a brilliant image.

woah, thats completely insane! Thats a pretty big tigershark, and I count 3 equally big sharks in the background. You've got some balls! I was once in the water with a 2 meter tiger, and I was terrified!

Interesting photo, a shame with the high iso noise, but what can you do..

 

thanks amarbhai,this was one of the craziest things i've done but one of the most exhilirating as well

thanks lars,glad you liked it,let's just say one rediscovers one's balls with those tiger sharks around,there were usually 3-4 tiger sharks around and between 10-15 blacktip sharks.the high iso was neccessary as i wasn't using my strobes because of too much backscatter in the water.

great timing

would have loved to be there in the water with you guys

 

thx jaap,glad u liked it and being in the water with them is an 'experience'.
