UPY 2018 Black & White - Third
'Angels of the Deep'
Santosh Shanmuga
These sandbar sharks are all male and have probably come together to feed or spawn. A school of females may join them later in the season but in the meantime, they must establish a hierarchy. Sizing each other up, the dominant sharks attempt to secure the better spots nearer the surface.
Judge's comment: A captivating frame of a spiral of sharks, drawing the viewer deeper and deeper into the image.
