Great White Shark Eyes The Camera
This is my favorite shot from my Shark Diver trip last week on the liveaboard boat Horizon to see great white sharks (Carcharodon carcharias) at Guadalupe Island. One shark in particular took to circling the boat clockwise and would pass very close to the starboard side cage. As it did so, I managed to get some close photographs with good detail of its eye, gills and the ampullae of Lorenzini on its snout.

The best location in the world to “shark dive” to view great white sharks is Mexico’s Guadalupe Island. Guadalupe Island (Isla Guadalupe), Baja California, Mexico.
