‘Summer Break’ – Sand tiger sharks spend the summer months aggregating around the shipwrecks off the North Carolina coast as part of their annual migration along the east coast of the U.S.
Judged by Andre Philip who says:
A great shot of a incredible encounter! It´s a winner shot, congrats Tanya!
I left the corporate world a couple years ago to concentrate full time on underwater photography and conservation. That was one of the best decision I ever made. My favorite subject is sharks, but I really enjoy photographing most anything underwater from tiny shrimp to massive shipwrecks. I hope to capture images that inspire people to care about the ocean and the creatures that live in it. I shoot with an Olympus OM-D E-M1, Nauticam housing, and Sea&Sea YS-D2 strobes.
