SMILING SHARKS

A lively lemon shark grins into the camera and showcases his impressive teeth. With a wide smile spread across his face, he is more of a friendly chappy than a vicious predator of the ocean. These impressive snaps are the work of 46 year old Todd Mintz, a professional photographer from Saskatchewan, Canada. Todd, who has had a passion for photography since he was a child, captured the amusing images off the coast of the British Virgin Islands, Bahamas.
