wow, just incredible shooting. I love the great white picture (i've always been partial to great whites) and the last pic with the lion looking at the (antelope?) is just amazing. Out of curiosity, what lens do you use for your wide-angle/panoramic shots?

Taken when we went cage diving with the great whites in Gaansbai (not far from Hermanus)
