BEHIND THE IMAGE

Its fascinating to see the different personalities of great white sharks. Cautious, brazen, shy. Each shark’s behaviour differs.

This shark was definitely curious. It approached the cage without hesitation and came almost to a complete stop beside. When sharks stop swimming they sink and that is exactly what happened to this one. It slowly sank downward below the cage but kept its eye glue on me and my friend inside. Once its curiosity was satisfied it finned its tail and set off into the blue and was not seen again.

PROVENANCE

Caged was airdropped to an anonymous collector as a thank you for being my first ever collector. That person still holds this image.
