Australia - Great Barrier Reef - White Tip Shark


The tips of the dorsal fin are white on this shark.
The sharks a very calm and you find them sleeping on the bottom.

They usually only move if disturbed or eating.

I had just disturbed this young fellow and he circled overhead
waiting for me to leave his resting area.
