Surf's Up
As far as I can tell this is not a PSed image. It certainly reflects some of news stories around here the last few weeks/month.

I dunno... I thought sharks didn't venture into shallow waters?

It's real. The story that went with that picture was about why so many sharks have showed up close to shore on the west coast of the US this summer. Big ones too.

Great White sharks have been spotted with the surfers up at San Onofre in the last month or so. They have regularly been sighted along the coast from Long Beach up to Santa Barbara. I would not be surprised to learn this photo was taken here in SoCal in the last month.

OOOOHHHHH Mutha Phucker!!!!!!!!
What the hell is that dude doing? Not that he could out paddle a friggin' Great White, but my fat ass would be headin' the other direction, not enjoying the view. I wonder of his wetsuit is full of "liquid feces"? Bruce, you got a link to that story? Where do you live arz? I live in San Diego. I don't watch TV much, but I have heard of some sharks around the area lately. Actually, I don't think it's lately, I think they are here quite often, it's just that people don't see um. I've seen pics of our coastline where there are several big sharks just past the surf break hanging out.

not a shark
It's not nearly so scary once you realize that it's a dolphin.

I visited Dave's linked site, I'm still not convinced. After comparing the pic here with the pic of the dolphin they show I still think it looks like a shark. The dorsal fin of the first pic looks more pointy and the body looks more streamlined than the dolphin. Of course I wasn't there and can't really argue with the guy who was, but it still looks "fishy" to me. Yeah, I now dolphins aren't fish, but I couldn't pass up the funny .

The second pic is from a different angle. That's why it looks different.
