B&W conversion of a young Whale Shark image (about 20 feet) in an effort to get rid of some of the backscatter in the water. The sharks congregate in this location because spawning Tuna fish have released billions of eggs into the water. Reflected light off the particles can make it look like a snow storm.
D2xs, f 8, SS 1/250, ISO 400, Tokina 10-17mm fish eye, Aquatica housing, available light.

I do applaud the attempt & B/W conversion here Stan, however, to me the image is let down by the upper water reflection which is distracting.
