Mini Manta Ray

6 posts
  1. I got side tracked cutting up a Whale Shark Training DVD we are working on and found these shots.

     

    Here is an interesting shot of a Mini Manta Ray plus a Whale Shark Feeding on a bait ball.

    6 megs

  2. You really must be bored. Reminds me of a guy who had a fake blue ring octopus toy he planted all over the place and got the film shooters to blow a few frames on it.

     

    Btw, it's a pity that the snorkellers disturbed the feeding. Did you see how the whaleshark veered off once that snorkeller went through the baitball? That's just plain bad!

  3. Often wondered whether i should be doing the tricks thing... sharks on sticks etc. but decided to leave that for others. Can be hilarious though if the timing's right.

     

    Wags I was watching that footage on your DVD and none of those little fish actually appear to go into the shark's mouth. Are you sure it's feeding on them?

  4. Well I'm okay now, got a can of Burbon :P

    Too windy to go out and try to get the Coaral Spawn as well....arg :)

    Yes many a good shot lost over the years due to the customers....but they were paying the bills.

     

    The Shark indeed was trying to eat them but it was abit too slow, it might of been eating all the smaller stuff the glass fish were feeding on though.

  5. Bourbon comes in cans? Tell me more. Is this an Aussie invention?

  6. They are called UDL cans...Bourbon and coke... :)
