Great images! Looks like an awesome trip so far. Can't wait to see more. Guess renting all that underwater gear is paying off.

(Insert Jaws theme here)
Great shots. The black and white one just looks menancing!

Nice stuff. If I were shooting those pictures, you'd see the glare of my flash on the glass that would be between me and the sharks as I looked into the aquarium.

Thanks James -

That last shot is from about 2 feet away, that first one is about 4-5 feet away, it's amazing how fast the color saturation drops off....

Basically u/w if you can't reach out and touch it, you're not close enough...

Really good shots Daylan,
I like the flash effect on the second shot.The last shot is nice also.I've been on several shark dives and it is a thrill you can't explain unless you've been there.
Have you ever been to Palau,in the south pacific?.Best Place on earth to dive.
