Soo blue!!! Nice shot!Mine is HERE if you have a time! Thanks!
It looks like the shark was going after the diver! Haha! Happy WW! :)
I wonder if there was one checking out your back side, too?
Very wonderful underwater shot!
Ooooh, I'd hate to be that diver. Hihihihi!
Happy WW!
My WW entry is here.
Scary!!! But I guess as long as the diver holds his breathe and is not in anyway bleeding. He should be pretty safe near that shark :)
Amazing piece of photography as always, Bobbie. I know now what you mean by the right blue.
Now that is good advice! Another marvellous photo Bobbie!
Lest they become lunch...! What a photo. Amazing.
I'd say that shark is thinking "ooooh, what a tasty looking tushy".
Sooooo...dangerous!
Yikes, that's not what you want to see over your shoulder sneaking up behind you!
Wow that's a great shot and what a beautiful place deep under the water.
Eeep! One of the many reasons I'm content to be a beach-comber and a wader. You'll NEVER get me to dive!

Why do I have the theme from "Jaws" running through my head all of a sudden?
Great shot. The sharks do look interest, as long as they keep a respectful distance.
(We had the theme from Jaws in mind as well ;) )
That's about as close as I'd ever care to get to a shark. Great image.
"Ever get the feeling you're being watched??" :)
Thanks for visiting TeaReads.
Yeah...I think that's why I'll never do any real diving. I can live vicariously through other divers:)
Priceless moment though...glad you captured it.
Nice shot! Happy WW and thanks for stopping by! :D
Oh my! I'm not a fan of sneaky sharks but it did make for a great photo.
WOW that would have scared me. Great shot
I've read that when you're in open water, you're always within some small distance from a shark -- looks like pretty persuasive evidence of that claim!
This would have scared the beejeezus out of me...I'll leave the scuba to you! :-) Thanks for stopping by today...
Wow! That's a little scary. Made for a wonderful shot, though. :D
Another beautiful photo!! I love all the shades of blue....and the caption!!
I missed WW today. {sad}
Eeeps! Yeh... I would say so!
Great photo! It's beautiful.

Just got back from Canada - thanks for the comment on `The Green House Effect'.
This is a priceless photo - and what a great title!
Aha, sneaky sharks are exactly the reason I won't be trying scuba diving soon.
Thanks to all our Wordless Wednesday friends for stopping by.

Hey, you can't just leave me hanging like that with no story to say what happened. LOL! I take it you didn't have any trouble out of it.
Hi 2Sweet - Sorry -- didn't mean to leave anybody hanging there in suspense. No, there was no problem at all. The shark sort of swam past that diver and went on its way. The diver was completely engrossed in taking a macro shot of something tiny and never even saw the shark. We told him about it later.
