Location
Gansbaii, South AfricaTime
This was taken in the morning around 8am on the second shark dive of the day.Lighting
Pretty normal morning lighting, clear blue skies and no clouds.Equipment
Canon EOS 6d and Canon 70-200mm lensInspiration
I had 2 days of shark diving while i was in South Africa, i had a GoPro whilst i was in the cage and my DSLR while i was on the boat. I found the the best of the dive was watching from the boat as the water was so cold.Editing
just a couple of tweeks to contrast and exposure with a slight bit of sharpening.In my camera bag
A lot, about 15kgs worth which fortunately i haven't had taken off me when boarding the plane.Feedback
Take at least 2 shark dives or if you can do 2 days with 4 shark dives, its very difficult to get the right shot of the shark coming up at the right time and the right angle so the more opportunity you have the better.
