When we got to the tiger shark spot, we found more lemon sharks than tigers, about 2:1 or 3:1 (although there we still plenty of tigers however!). When there wasn&#8217;t a tiger shark in view, there was always a lemon shark or two. The lemons were bigger than I remember (I&#8217;d seen lemon sharks before on a handful of dolphin trips to the same area), about 8&#8242; to 11&#8242; feet in length. And they were very accomodating, coming right up to the dome port on my water camera housing. It was really fun and easy photography of a reasonably large and charismatic creature. I hope to find time to do it again.<\/p>\n<p>You can also see a <a href=\"http:\/\/pa.photoshelter.com\/c\/phillipcolla\/gallery-slideshow\/G0000eBqRaOFG_cA\">lemon shark photo slideshow<\/a> in case the one above does not appear in your feed reader.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Lemon shark with live sharksuckers.\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oceanlight.com\/spotlight.php?img=10752\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Lemon shark with live sharksuckers, Negaprion brevirostris, Echeneis naucrates\" src=\"http:\/\/www.oceanlight.com\/stock-photo\/lemon-shark-photo-10752-985536.jpg\" alt=\"Lemon shark with live sharksuckers, Negaprion brevirostris, Echeneis naucrates\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Lemon shark with live sharksuckers.<br \/>\nImage ID: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oceanlight.com\/spotlight.php?img=10752\">10752<\/a><br \/>\nSpecies: <a title=\"Lemon shark photos\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oceanlight.com\/lemon_shark_photo.html\">Lemon shark<\/a>, <a title=\"Negaprion brevirostris photos\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oceanlight.com\/lightbox.php?sp=Negaprion_brevirostris\"><i>Negaprion brevirostris<\/i><\/a>, <a title=\"Echeneis naucrates photos\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oceanlight.com\/lightbox.php?sp=Echeneis_naucrates\"><i>Echeneis naucrates<\/i><\/a><br \/>\nLocation: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oceanlight.com\/lightbox.php?country=bahamas\">Bahamas<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Keywords: lemon shark, picture, photo, Negaprion brevirostris, underwater, stock photo, image, photograph.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My lemon shark pictures (Negaprion brevirostris) are now on this website.
