UPY 2018 Behaviour - Highly Commended
'The Birth'
Filippo Borghi
I went to dive this site to photograph Mediterranean black coral but during the dive I discovered various shark egg cases in different stages of evolution. Unfortunately I had a wide angle lens on so it was not possible to get the right shot. The next day myself and the dive guide went back with a macro lens and during the session he called me over because one of the egg cases had started to hatch and a baby shark was emerging! I took some photos s fast I could of this incredible moment.
Judge's comment: A wonderful moment, perfectly captured. Not easy to take when these things happen fast and at depth. Alex Mustard
