Finalist Wildlife Photographer of the Year
Dr Nick More Cornwall, UK
A blue shark photographed off the UK coast during summertime. "We encountered between 10-20 on this particular day," says photographer Nick More. "The sharks are bold, confident and curious. I chose a slow shutter speed combined with accelerated panning to capture the beauty, grace and speed of these charismatic predators, resulting in a dynamic portrait of a stunning species in its open ocean environment. The skipper and orange RIB are rendered in a painterly way in the background, due to the intentional camera movement."
