Bahamas

We are in the Bahamas and we are going to dive with sharks, the ordinary Caribbean Reef shark (Carcharhinas perezi). Before we have dived one week with Jim Abernathy on de M/V Shearwater and we are used to lemon sharks, reef sharks and even big tiger sharks. I am not blasé, but I have the wrong kind of self-confidence and a feeling of: nothing can happen to me...
Well, we will see about that!

There are moments in life that are unforgettable. As I reminisce, an indelible image appears; the first kiss, the first breath on scuba… the first time to achieve something incredible you have dreamt about for a long time.

Spring 2006, I’m sitting behind my desk as I’m surfing the internet. A review about a shark expedition in the Bahamas is drawing my attention. The pictures that accompany the article are very impressive. I have always dreamt about photographing sharks and that is what this trip is about! My enthusiasm is taking control over me and ten minutes later I have booked the trip at the internetsite of Jim Abernethy’s Scuba Adventures (www.scuba-adventures.com). That night I lie awake….what have I done? What will my impulsive act bring?
