Lord of the Seas
Photograph by Marc Henauer
“Off the coast of Guadalupe Island, great white sharks gather to feed on sea lions,” writes Marc Henauer of this scene he captured near the island off Baja California, Mexico. “It’s an ideal place to observe these majestic animals in their natural state.”

When I first saw this picture on my phone, I had the impression that the shark was half way out of the water and most of the fish were jumping in the air. It was beautiful but so different from the reality! This is why I should never look at pictures from my phone 😉
