These days, we are ever vigilant on the outer beaches of Cape Cod, watching for any dark shape in the shallows. White sharks are starting to show up on a daily basis, but more likely the shape is a seal. In this case the bather has encountered a grey seal pup. If it had been a white shark, the shadow would likely have been 5 times as long.

Getting dynamic images of such an enigmatic animal proved more difficult than I originally thought. Maybe it is because leading up to this trip, I studied as many images as I could to better prepare, and in the process of doing so, saw some of the best and most amazing great white shark images in existence.
I did get a few I liked, and this one worked really well in black and white.
