It was fascinating to watch how the giant kelp forest sways back and forth to the rhythm of the waves. Seeing all this raw energy made me feel a little alien and vulnerable. This environment will continue to be so powerful whether we are there to appreciate it or not. Nature doesn't need us. We need nature. 📷 @sharomovdmitry @nat_engine #pole2pole #saveourseas #aquedu #sharkspotters #adventuretime #PADI #ilovesharks #sharkdevocean #discoversouthafrica #kelpforest #lovetheoceans #capetown #pangaea #marinebiology #marinebio #sharkproject #dreamjob #poznajswiat #southafrica #travel #travelphotography #diver #instadive #BSAC #diving #underwater #underwaterphoto #divingfun #divers #divinglife (at Miller's Point, Western Cape)

It was such a privilege to be part of the shark tagging team. Here we are releasing a 2.5m female sevengill shark. She has an acoustic tag that will inform us of her behaviour during the next 7 years.

Success! We managed to tag 15 sevengill sharks. The acoustig tags will remain active for the next 7 years and will contribute vital data to the understanding and conservation of this species.
