Amazing shot .

An amazing click. (Not Photoshopped!)

When this photograph was first published in Africa Geographic, BBC Wildlife, later in Paris Match and the Daily Mail, it resulted in a flurry of e-mails, phone calls and letters from around the world asking if the image was a fake. The image became the most talked about of shark photograph ever. The photograph is real, no photoshop, no digital manipulation, no nothing, in fact it was shot on slide film Fuji Provia 100 using a Nikon F5 Camera and 17-35 mm lens.

wow! great picture but is scary xx

I would be paddling like no tomorrow x

Whales aren't agressive though are they ?

they can be, they could whack you with their tail and it would kill or seriously damage xx

Yes but they don't have a natural aggression Jake ... I think the tail lifting is part of what they do .. not part of them being agressive ..x

oh i didnt read your comment properly, no its not aggression its when they dive that it can happen xx

lol i have found myself doing that lots today on this course work . as i am not taking in the questions i am reading it several times ... x

That is a shark and I would be paddling so quick fire would be coming off the end of my canoe!
