Description
Shark Portraits by Mike Coots is a stunning photographic narrative that brings the ocean's apex predators up close and personal. Through intimate portraits, Coots reveals the beauty and character of each species, from the majestic Great Whites to the rare Oceanic White Tips. Captured on location around the world, including Hawaii, Mexico, New Zealand, the Bahamas, and the Maldives, these extraordinary images showcase the diversity and complexity of shark life. Free diving and scuba diving without a cage, Coots has recorded some of the ocean's largest sharks, including species as big as 14 feet in length. With remarkable attention to detail and a deep understanding of each species, Coots' portraits not only reveal the physical beauty of these magnificent creatures but also their inner lives. This unique photographic narrative offers a fresh perspective on what it means to be apex predators in the ocean.
