I WAS GOING TO MAKE A FAVORABLE COMMENT ABOUT THIS IMAGE, HOWEVER, IF THE ARTIST ISN’T GOING TO TAKE THE TIME TO REPLY TO COMPLIMENTS OR COMMENTS, THEN WHY SHOULD I LEAVE A COMMENT THAT HE ISN’T GOING TO RECOGNIZE? BOB :)
Norbert Probst
Of cause, I have to thank all the people for compliments they made. It is a great honor for me to find so much appreciation. But it is too much to answer to anybody. And please, don’t forget the time difference between your place and Europe. “Sometimes” I have to sleep, to work and to travel around the world, to create my photographs. After all, there is very less time to participate in forums like this. I’m sorry for that. But I hope you will enjoy my photographs anyway.
Best regards, Norbert
Michelle Ogues

how lovely!
AndrewX
The depth of this shot is amazing. I love the light and the dark, clarity and the blur.
I think sharks are amazing creatures and unfortunately so maligned. It would be such a loss to the world if there were no more places were such photographs could be taken.
GittiArt
Einfach toll Norbert …habe das bereits auf mygall bewundert …es muss ein aufregendes Gefühl sein wenn so viele Hammerhais vorbeischwimmen …denn diese Haiart ist bekannt für ihre Aggressivität …oder stimmt das nicht?
GREAT SHOT!

Jacob Routzahn
What an exciting capture. I’m not sure I could hold composure during situation like this, but then again I’ve never scuba dove before. Love the back lighting and contrast. Way to hold steady on 1/60 sec and no flash.
Norbert Probst
In situations like this I don’t think about things you said. But, of cause, I’m excited …..
Rachael Macleod 29 days ago
I cant imagine being able to capture this on film as I would be so stunned to witness it in the first place! Such a spectacle to witness, I envy you Norbert!
Norbert Probst replied 29 days ago
Thank you for all your comments and favs. If you dive a lot, you get use to do pictures in situations like that. But sometimes I miss to look at the action. However, then I’ve got the capture.
