Things like license plates to turtle shells have been found in their stomachs I would not be surprised if down the road, in a couple of years they find the camera in the sharks gut I think what is most interesting is having so many Tiger Sharks in one place! Ive never seen that before.I wonder what the insurance company said when they issued a claim lol Glass: 8-15 f/4.0L | 16-35 f/2.8LmkII | 24-70 f/2.8L | 70-200 f/2.8L mkII | 100 f/2.8L Macro | 300 f/2.8LmkII
