WHALE SHARKS MODEL WITH HUMANS

WIRED : THOUSANDS OF WHALE SHARKS PICTURES MAY HELP AT RISK SPECIES link here!

EXCERPT: "At first glance, Kristian Schmidt and Shawn Heinrichs’ photos of models swimming with whale sharks off the coast of the Philippines appear heavily Photoshopped. But while the levels and colors have been manipulated and the backgrounds tweaked, the most striking part – the models’ proximity to sharks – is real."


Siren Says:  You may have seen those modeling shows where the new hopefuls have to endure set ups that are more than challenging - water sprayed in their faces while they try to look into the camera modeling eye makeup or a prop that is in the way of the runway.  This modeling assignment - staying in the water while a huge whale shark swims around or with you had to be the most challenging of all.

I hope the pictures stay up on the net a while.  Go there now to see them!
