Despite that fact that this photo breaks every rule of photogarphic composition, the fluidity and flexibility of these blacktips is unusually evident. Clealry cartilage rules when you wanna turn in a hurry!
"Golden Eye" I was looking at some shrimp under a ledge when this ray popped its head out. It didn't seemed perturbed that I was so close and I think it scrubbed up for the occassion as the colours of blue and gold were intense.

Just before the sardine run we came across this pack of around 40 female blacktip sharks, streamlined fighterplanes of the deep blue, an ocean full of entropy.
