With all the new imagery of Australia, we were really hoping to find a shark - but we had no idea that the first shark discovered would be quite this big!

Creating the shark’s eye with a solitary tree was a particularly brilliant idea we thought! :D

Thanks to Andrew.

    Any chance that this just to the North is meant to be some sort of Ray?
