Cool. Looks like you were pretty close... within 100ft?

Yes, they are quite used to people and you can get very close. It's quite interesting to swim with them, but a bit unnerving when they nip at you. The males are somewhat like a 600lb. pit bull.

Just catching and enjoying the rays, what a great shot.

Very nice shot, super sharp.

He really has some attitude. Hope he has on his SPF 50.
