entry description
The Blue shark is the most beautiful shark I have ever seen. I just love their look and the color. To have seen this perfect male shark in these perfect light conditions, happened to me just once in many shark dives on the same spot. Sadly the Blue shark is facing a big threat from the long line fishing industry as by catch and is probably the most caught shark species on the planet.Location: Banco Condor, Azores, Portugal
