As an Australian, jumping into the water with sharks and stingrays is counterintuitive to my regular instincts. Nevertheless, this swarming pack of sharks darted around us with their fins poking out of the waves cutting the water as they frenzied for fish guts. They didn’t seem to mind me poking my camera at their faces or coming fairly close to them. Their beady, myopic eyes still put me at a slight unease all the same.
