I miss 'them' sorely ....

.... that is all I can say while going through a rigid 3 months chemo and radiation protocol. Once I am done with it, I will be back at Tiger Beach.





Here are two photographs of a pro interacting with a "Ella", a stunningly responsive and most gentle 4 m tiger shark lady of Aliwal Shoal. The diver is Pierre Frolla, four times freediving world champion.

I believe these images transmit what I call harmonious and respectful shark-diver interaction.

I have taken the pics in April 2008. I am not sure whether "Ella" is still around - I am afraid she might have been a victim of the infamous Natal Sharks Board shark nets....
