Port Jackson Shark

This is another shot from Three Mile Reef off the coast of Perth. The Port Jackson Shark is very common here and is fairly harmless - it has some spines which are said to be venomous. They are usually found, like this one, quietly sitting on the bottom and they grow to around 4 -5 feet in length.

    They don't sound too scary, only growing to five feet, but the venomous spines could be a problem. Nice shot.
