These photos are from what was probably my most exciting
encounter in Sharm. I was guiding a group of relatively inexperienced
divers at the Dunraven, when we bumped into this guy. He's a 2.5m long
Oceanic White Tip. He swam around the wreck in fairly strong currents
like he owned the place, totally fearless of us unlike most sharks. He
even came up behind a woman lagging back from the rest of the group and
gave her a sniff. She didn't see it luckily, but it scared me!

He was occasionally passing well within touching distance
(although I didn't try!)

Luckily I had my camera in my BCD, and managed to shoot
off a few photos while trying to keep the group together. Unusually he
kept making it hard for me by coming so close I just had one fin at a
time in the viewfinder.
