Lemon Face

by Thomas Vignaud

A big Lemon shark, swimming around, curious.
The face looks weird, in part due to the distortion of the 10mm fisheye.
Moorea, FP.

Now I understand the word ’snarky’. This is either very scary or the funniest shark I’ve ever seen. Can’t imagine how you managed this photo, but I like the impact it presents.

10mm Fisheye!!!! I would be mortally afraid. Those set of perfect teeth also do not make for a charming smile. Hats off to you Thomas for your underwater water shots!!

I have never seen a Lemon shark before. I was in Moorea years ago, but still never heard of them. I loved that place, God I wish I could go back and take my family ….. Thanks for a cool shot.
