Great White Sharks, Isla Guadalupe


Flew into San Diego, Ca and boarded the MV Horizon at the H&M Landing and prepared for our 2o some hour boat ride to Isla Guadalupe, Mexico.  We were fortunate to have decent seas on the trip there.  The crew did an exceptional job and the food was great!  This was a cage dive on a hooka system so the divers went in shifts.  Can I just say that there were white sharks every day on every shift.  At one time there were 4 white sharks with over 90 feet of visibility.  On this trip we encountered a dozen or more different white sharks including a juvenile male and a 16 foot gorgeous female.  This trip is a photographers dream, shallow depths, ambient light, and endless subjects.  I will be returning to seal prison later this fall hoping to capture some shots of the local inmates this time.
