Wow, and you were getting into the cage after seeing that?

YIKES!!! I'm not afraid of sharks but that would certainly make me think twice.....or maybe three times about getting in the water.

"we're going to need a bigger boat!"

Great shot.

Uhhh, more power to you but I'm NOT getting into that cage.... Powerful shot!
Karen

very nice

Well, this shot was taken when I took a break from the cage

It didnt really feel all the scary in reality...... went back to the cage and was treated to a similar 'bite' from a great white!!

Very impressive image!

Dude, that's awesome. I remember seeing Blue Water White Death. That was well before the GWS thing became popular.

Awesome, awesome picture...I am trying to put together a White Shark diving trip and would love any tips you may have. Any other photos? Thanks for sharing.

Tanner07: Most operators seem to have similar tours - make sure you choose one with the best boat . Also, check the water clarity before you go on the trip - we didnt have a choice, but the visibility was poorer than usual. We could see the shark only from around 10 or so feet away.....so, you miss the approach.

And yes, the water is always freezing cold if you want to see Great Whites...

Here are some more from the trip :

Amazing and downright CREEPY. I hear that Great Whites are the only sharks that lift their head (and more) out of the water. That thing is HUGE -- kudos to you for getting anywhere near it.

Amazing is right. great work. thanks

Very scary subject The third is probably the best shot,I think it is smiling

Cool pics and story.
