Out on a limb … Aug 23 2007

By Graeme Duane, field crew

This is a photo of the way we film sharks at Earth-Touch. As you can see there’s not much in it, no cage, no SCUBA and no bait.

So the shark gets to do pretty much what it wants, and the diver just has to concentrate on not looking too delectable. Seriously, though, we are cautious and careful and this is actually a very controlled situation.
