As my true friend and loyal sharkback rider underwater, I am saving my Shark from this giant Mosasaurus, before he gets to be a dinner and I follow him as a dessert...lol.
Amazing what a good Trident can do with your enemy.

It was cloudy all day, so gave up the idea of chasing a sunset at the beach. Realised about 30 minutes before sunset that it might just open up, and got there just in time. This is a location I shoot frequently, and the sun sets in the ideal position during the summer months at the N Westerly end of the beach.
The Macro Mondays theme for tomorrow, 11/1, is holes. This is the hole to hang up a small votive candle holder. The bokeh in the back looked like shark’s teeth, hence the title.
So.. I was invited by Kaelyn Alecto to go to the beach... but little did I know that there would be sharks! We had to sacrifice Tinuxdotnl to save our own lifes, sorry about that :P
It was a fun shoot, with lots of great people! See in the tags who, and look for their versions of this pic :)
I love my kids but this lockdown makes me question my sanity... its either me or them...

Look at me! I'm a shark!
Not really, just a sea lion sense of humor. Moss Landing, just north of Monterey, California.
From my Sea Lions of Moss Landing collection.
Love shells and sometimes collect them. I like the central apex of the shell that make the shell somewhat resemble an eye.

These bronze whaler sharks inhabit subtropical waters, and they feed on smaller sharks, rays, and bony fish. Unfortunately, bronze sharks are prime targets for both commercial and sports fishermen.

The temperature was dropping like a stone as I arrived at the headland. My first time here in over a year, and the previous two visits had been consigned to the dustbin due to endless rain driving straight into the front of the camera. Generally speaking, rain doesn't put me off going out, but when it's a constant battle to keep the lens free of unsightly blotches, that's usually an adventure too far. So really, it was the first time I’d been able to use the camera at Trevose since, well, since I bought this one actually - more than five years ago. The lighthouse and the lifeboat station on the other side of the headland had been its very first outing. Today, I was on the way home via an afternoon of babysitting my two year old grandson in nearby Wadebridge, and I was pooped. He’d pooped too for that matter, but that’s a story you don’t want to read about. We’ll move on shall we? We’ve formed a mutual admiration society, little Alfie and I. He seems particularly fond of his grandad for reasons that aren't entirely clear. I mean I played with him from minute one, fed him (he’s rather keen on what’s in the tuck box) and took him to the park, where he gazed at the older girls in a manner that’s going to get him into a spot of trouble when he’s older if he doesn’t learn a bit of decorum very quickly. One little girl aged about six had particularly caught his eye. Each time he went down the slide he waited for her to join him at the top as she raced around in a dizzying circuit. When she was gone, I was instructed to take her place.
Much as I love the little guy, I was glad when his daddy finished work and released me back into the community. And I had a plan. A reward for the afternoon of earning brownie points from my son and daughter-in-law. It was a beautiful evening and I’d take a detour along the coast to Trevose. That lighthouse was long overdue a visit. Over the last week and more, Cornwall had been basking under clear blue skies. Spring was definitely in the air at last, and brought with it more than a hint of the summer that lies ahead. The trouble was, Trevose needs a bit of sea action and preferably a cloud or two at least to gather some colour at the end of the day. It doesn’t take a lot of froth and foment to create a bit of drama in the water here, but this was as flat as it gets. A no show, photographically speaking. It was so calm that a number of anglers had gathered on the rocks down below the lighthouse, close to the water’s edge. I made for my usual spot, but very quickly realised that I needed to try something different if I was going to get a shot of any kind. Time to explore.
Some years ago, during one of our first visits here, my brother Dave took a fine shot of one of the sea stacks that lay beyond the northern tip of the headland. From down in the low saddle opposite the lighthouse where I usually go, it’s hidden from view, but I had walked up onto the far side of the headland once before and noticed it, a gnarly old shark fin poking from the sea. I’d never photographed it, but perhaps it was time to take a closer look, and see if I could get lower down than Dave had, perhaps to break the horizon with it. What if there was a way down onto the rocks that surely lay at the edge of the headland here? As I crested the rise, the stack appeared in front of me, with another cluster further out to sea, a bright sunbeam lighting up the water in between them. And yes, there was a safe route down to the rocks. A comfortable grassy knoll where I could sit and eat my orange and work out what I was going to try and do here.
From where I was sitting, the two groups of rocks were some distance apart. What if I could move further down towards the right and bring them closer to one another? The sunbeam would move to the right of the stacks as well, but that was fine with me. And could I get low enough to break the horizon with the shark’s fin? The answer was yes. I found the spot I was looking for quite easily, but continued exploring. I found something else too, but I’m going to return to that in another story if that’s ok.
As the sun sank lower towards the horizon, the beam across the sea intensified and spread towards the edge of the landfall at my feet. Not a cloud worthy of the name in sight, but that was fine. A calm flat sea offered perfect conditions for a long exposure, and even at thirty seconds a surprising amount of texture was retained on its surface. It didn’t last for long, and soon that golden beam disappeared as the sun changed colours, the top half orange and the bottom half red as it touched the edge of the ocean. Within moments it was gone, and what was left of the warmth in the air departed with it. I could so easily have come away with a disappointing shot of the lighthouse on this flat sea clear sky evening, and it would probably never have seen the light of day. Isn’t it strange how you can come to a location every now and then and always plump for the obvious? I’m glad that for once I had a little wander and discovered something new. I’ll try the classic shot again another time - it’s not going anywhere after all, is it?

I thought I'd post this rescan of the D&H RF16s at Wells, MI to go along with the news that one of the Sharks, the 1216, was on the move, at least for a short trip. I happened to catch a video yesterday on You Tube by Ron Asselin showing the 1216 moving from the warehouse in Escanaba to the Escanaba & Lake Superior facilities at Wells. The old Baldwin was in rough shape and missing its side panels. It was being pulled by one of the ELS switchers, but at least it was moving on its own wheels. Why was it being moved to the shops is the billion dollar question. I know that the plans are for the two sharks to be donated to a museum after Mr Larkin, the owner, passes. I hope he is still enjoying good health; he has assembled quite a collection that he keeps private. Sure, it's sad that we can't see them, but at least they are out of the elements and being preserved. Hopefully, the time will come when they will be displayed for all to see.

As we were walking back from the point, a local fisherman reeled in a fish. It turned out to be a baby Sand Shark. He had trouble getting it off the hook, so Bill jumps in and grabs it and removes the hook. I'm like, NO WAY, I'm doing that.
He was raised in the town of Sharkville by Sharkathon and Sharka Kent, who wanted a normal son, but ended up with a Super Shark. Still, he rocks that plaid like no shark does.
This is what happens when I try to take a shortcut home to make it in time for dinner and end up choosing the least safe route. Sammy and I almost became dinner ourselves!
