Peekaboo?

Please click to enlarge.

This sure is an unusual picture!

Some novel, previously unrecorded behavior?
Is that Reef Blacktip really turning its head to look at Sasha, as is being speculated in the post? My personal interpretation is that this is most probably a freeze frame of a Blacktip shaking its head after having grasped a piece of bait. That's what they usually do and it would also account for the open mouth and the entire s-shaped body posture.
Still - great shot!

Or - may it be a reflection of Fiji's famous multiculturalism?
As in this?

Talking of which, some minor cultural challenges persist - alas!
Enjoy!
