A taste of Tahiti

A day out in the ocean swimming with the black tip reef sharks and stingrays. I have some great images of the animals but this one put it into perspective, showing the people and the hungry rays.

A great afternoon walking along a beautiful beach I cam across these two kids playing with their dog in the sand. These were a fascinating set of images as it shows how they were face down in the sand putting on their sand masks. The dog lay near them in disbalief. Oh I laughed so. They then caught wind of me and investigated...laughing as the flash went off. They loved seeing themselves on the display.

Getting up close with the sharks was a treat and again some great images of them swimming over the reef. In this one the guide risks his fingers for me to get the shot for which I was very grateful. Being only a few cm away from my submerged face this shark poses for the money shot. It took some time near misses but we persevered.
