Hammerhead Shark
While swimming along a steep slope about 60 feet deep at Wolf Island in the Galapagos Islands, I saw this shark circling around a cleaning station up the slope in about 20 feet of water. I saw a large boulder in 30 feet of water that I thought I might be able to hide behind a get in close for a photo. I slowly made my way up behind the boulder while breathing as slowly as possible so that I didn't create too many bubbles that would scare the shark away. I got lucky as it swam right over me and I got a few photos with the shark with the sky and clouds in the background. Hope you like it.
