Nose dive. Florida, USA: COMICAL optical illusion shots look like a diver is about to be swallowed by a greedy shark. Other images show two bull sharks huddling in for a selfie, hugging each other in an accidental collision while another taken from only three-feet away shows a bull shark baring its teeth as it swims towards the photographer, having enjoyed a tasty morsel. While attacks are rare, they are regarded as a potentially dangerous shark species because of their aggression. Bull sharks grow up to 11 feet long and can weigh up to 290 pounds. Their bite carry a force of 1,330 pounds. These images were captured by shark diver and underwater photographer Captain John Moore (56) in Jupiter, Florida, using a Sony A7iii camera. ?The sharks were feeding and just happened to bump into each other,? said John. ?The one with the exposed teeth just ate the piece of fish. I love that shots like this show these misunderstood creatures in a gentle way. ?I love freediving with sharks, especially the bulls, and I definitely feel very at home with them. ?They obviously are wild animals, but they are smart and recognize me in the water. ?We quickly build up a relationship, mostly because I feed them, and I feel extremely privileged to be able to spend so much time in the water with them. ?I also remove hooks and lines from them mediadrumimages/@captainjohnmoore
