Not just Shark
Pictures: Elasmodiver contains photos of sharks, skates, rays, and
chimaera's from around the world. It began as a simple web based
field guide to help divers find the best places to encounter
different species of sharks and rays but it has slowly evolved into
a much larger project containing information on all aspects of shark
diving and photography. There are now more than a thousand shark
pictures and sections on shark evolution, biology, and
conservation. There is a large library of reviewed shark books, a
constantly outdated shark taxonomy page, a monster list of shark
links, and deeper in the site there are numerous articles and
stories about shark encounters. Elasmodiver is now so difficult to
check for updates, that new information and pictures are listed on
an Elasmodiver Updates Page that can be accessed here:
If you're looking for a
broader range of marine life pictures the following links represent
a new area that contains pictures on other marine organisms and on
marine habitats. This expansion of Elasmodiver is in its first
stages but will eventually include pages on everything from sea
stars to nudibranches. Creating this portal will take time and for
now it consists of a token offering of fish pictures. Please return
regularly to enjoy the progress.
Below is a selection of
some the most dramatic shark pictures contained in the Elasmodiver
Shark Picture Database. Please click on the thumbnails to expand
them.

Shark Picture Print Quality
Not all shark
pictures are created equal. In our printing process we use professional pigment based inks and heavy matte stock with excellent color
saturation properties resulting in outstanding shark picture reproductions
with long lasting rich colors. Our prints are created in-house and
individually inspected to ensure that the image you receive is as flawless
and vibrant as the original. Each photograph is then signed by the
photographer before being rolled and shipped in tough protective tubing.
Please note that
because all monitors are color calibrated differently, the images that you
see on your computer screen may vary slightly in tone from the actual colors
of the printed photograph. Also, images larger than 12"x18" are designed to
be viewed from a distance. On close examination it is normal for the detail
of large images to appear soft. This does not detract from the overall
quality of the print.

Important
Information on the use of the Shark Pictures listed in the Shark Pictures Database
These shark images represent many
years of work and great expense on behalf of the photographer. Under no
circumstances may any of these shark photographs be downloaded or used in any
way without the express permission of the photographer. This is a commercial
database - that means that all of the images carry a licensing fee.
Although the BC Marine Life Index contains some pictures of sharks and rays it
was designed to cover a much broader selection of aquatic life from crustaceans and mollusks,
to fish, marine mammals, corals and sponges. The life inhabiting the shoreline
of British Columbia is second to none in health, color, diversity, size, and
abundance.
