[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I caught this Sand Shark (also known as a Guitar Shark) and took a quick snap with my Sony compact before releasing it.

Even though it looks like a face there are no eyes here, this is just mouth and olfactory parts. The eyes are on top. This shark is more like a Ray as if feeds on the bottom rooting up crustaceans and other prey from the sand with it's hard arrow shaped head.

What an incredible "face", Matthew.
Thanks for a very rare and unusual POV of an unusual shark.
The details are really sharp, though a bit on the dark side.
Very interesting image.
TFS. : )
