Camera Meets a Shark
A camera meeting a shark sounds like the start of a joke—or the beginning of a story. That’s exactly what this blog is about: tales of adventure, conservation, and discovery aimed at building an emotional connection between people and marine life.
Here, I share field stories, encounters, short reflections, and the incredible people and organizations shaping the ocean’s future. Whether it’s a shark encounter, a dive with rays, or a moment of insight from the field, every post offers a glimpse into the world beneath the surface—and the journey of those working to protect it.
A Season with the Bull Sharks of Playa del Carmen
Just offshore from Playa del Carmen lies Shark Point, a place where female bull sharks return each season. In November we joined them again — a dive filled with close passes, familiar faces, and the calm power only bull sharks carry. Protected mangroves, community research, and years of conservation work shape this migration — a reminder of why these waters matter. A short visit, but one that deepened our connection to these incredible sharks.
