Reef Masters
by Thomas Vignaud
A few blacktip reef sharks, Moorea, French Polynesia.
Their social structure appears to be more complicated than expected, showing sexual and size segregation.
Equipment: 10mm, 1 strobe

What an interesting and artistic nature shot. I love the vibrant blue of the water, looking up to the surface. and that you were able to get seven sharks all in one photo. Congratulations!

I like the crowd of those yellow fishes that give a yellow colour to this photograph. It’s a soft, but eye catching detail!

Incredibly clear and sharp. It doesn’t even have the blurriness that underwater photos usually have. Excellent in all aspects!
