Michael Muller. Sharks

About the book: Uncaged and with a patented waterproof 1200-watt studio-quality lighting system, Michael Muller photographs sharks in the oceans of the world at extremely close range and with the same precision as in Hollywood. From tiger sharks in Fiji to great hammerheads in the Bahamas, this book showcases a selection of his most spectacular underwater images, including what is believed to be the first ever photograph of a great white shark's nocturnal leap.

In 2007, he took his camera underwater and began photographing sharks as they had never been seen before.
