Klaus - great Bull Shark Pics!
Remember Klaus?
He's still his Alte Schule self - and that's a good thing!
Megapixels or no megapixels, his portfolio of Bull Sharks in the SRMR and from Walker's Cay remains a testament to the venerable traditional analog photography where the dynamic range is still unmatched. Combine that with the stunning sharpness of the alas defunct true underwater lenses for the Nikonos RS and the results remain in a class of their own - and this probably for a very long time indeed!
And there's also a portfolio of GWs right here!

Great White Calendar!
This is Granma - actually, one of our most relaxed and mellow Bull Shark ladies.
As so often, Underwater Thrills have beat me to the punch!
Damn!
Still, it is with great personal pleasure that I can report that at this year's book fair in Frankfurt, our good and faithful friend Klaus has launched an exceptional calendar featuring his work with South Africa's Great Whites. Klaus has spent months in that region and his (analogue!) pictures of breaching GW are widely considered to be among the best in the industry.
You may also want to check out this gallery documenting Juerg's research within Shark Reef Marine Reserve.
Aside from being an exceptional underwater photographer, Klaus is also a passionate Shark conservationist and a benefactor who regularly donates his pictures to museums, scientists and pro-Shark publications. The proceeds from the sale of this calender will allow him to continue investing his money and his time into one of his principal goals, to document all of the Sharks on the IUCN Red List.
It's a herculean task and knowing the man, a labor of love.
As always, our very best wishes go out to him.
Please show your solidarity and order you calender here - it is for the very best of causes!
Thank you

Honoring Alex
Shark people: Alex (center) with Gary and Klaus (yes this is a link!)The good guys of MaiLife have done it again!
Please click on the images below: this month's issue features an hommage to our friend Alex the Sharkman who sat down for an interview with Jone during his recent visit. It's the story of how a small boy from the island of Malta became one of the most authoritative and passionate advocates of Sharks.
Thank you Alex!
And Sharkman is now on the list! (:
Enjoy!

A Postcard from Malta!
The Sharkman has just uploaded some footage from Fiji.
Pretty!
Ratu Tolu, Bum and Kinky however object: nobody likes to be made to look fat, especially not when already being pregnant like the latter two! Yes this is widescreen footage that has been compressed into "normal" aspect ratio during the uploading process!
Anyway, to us, it remains endearing.
It shows some typical scenes of what we do, including a funny little take of a greedy and inexperienced teenager barging in ahead of a biggie and ending up with a mouthful of coral rock in the process.
And the photographer who was allowed into the pit and captured the shot of a lifetime? None other than our good friend Klaus!
May the Gods of Fujichrome processing be clement!
Enjoy!
