What an absolutely beautiful shot. Brilliant capture. Is this the shot you entered into Wildlife Photographer of the Year? I see that exhibition every year and it looks very familiar! I hope to go out to Ningaloo one of these days. Thanks for the additional inspiration!
Thank you for the kind comment. Regarding Wildlife Photographer of the Year, no, this is a shot I took in April this year (2009) – haven’t entered this one.

Yes, it was. Looks even better now that I’ve corrected the white balance.
