To get this shot I had to calmly sit, perfectly buoyant in the water as the 12’ #tigershark swam towards me. It’s these moments that I love. Total calm, just feet from an apex predator. I couldn’t move I had to wait until the shark and I were perfectly aligned with each other. At just the right moment I fired off a burst of seven shots and captured this moment of perfect balance. Patience paid ⁣off. .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ #dive #diving #divinglife #ocean #oceanlife #oceanlove #padi #scuba #scubadive #scubadiver #scubadiving #sealife #sharklover #sharks #tigershark #underwater #underwaterlife #underwaterphoto #underwaterphotographer #underwaterphotography #underwaterphotographygraphy #underwaterphotographyv #underwaterpics #underwaterworld #uwphoto #tigerbeach #uwphotography #wildlifephotography .
