A quick-thinking drone photographer alerted authorities after spotting a great white shark swimming close to the water's edge, potentially saving lives.

An ocean photographer unknowingly captured his close encounter with a great white shark on camera and only became aware of the incident when he reviewed his GoPro footage hours later.

Shark conservationist, filmmaker, and photographer Jalil Najafov was on a great white shark expedition in Mexico and could not believe his eyes when he noticed a 15-foot shark with a huge circular scar from a bite mark, the size of which he had never seen before.

A teenager in New South Wales, Australia recently captured some drone footage that's somehow both benign and unsettling. While flying his DJI Spark over the beach, he spotted what appears to be a Great White Shark moseying by a pair of unsuspecting swimmers.

Earlier this year, marine conservationist Ocean Ramsey of One Ocean Diving was diving off the coast of the Hawaiian island of Oahu when the group came across one of the largest great white sharks ever caught on camera. The encounter can be seen in the 3.5-minute video above.

How do you capture a photo of a wild, people-averse, flighty great white shark in the murky green waters off of Cape Cod? If you're NatGeo photographer Brian Skerry, you pull out all the stops.

How far would you go for the perfect wildlife photo? Would you sit on a rotting whale carcass in the midst of great white shark feeding frenzy? Well, that's exactly what one scientist photographer does in the clip above, which aired back in 2008 on the Discovery Channel.

This photograph of an underwater camera being held up to a great white shark has been making the rounds on the Web over the past week. It was captured by a group of filmmakers who were shooting off the coast of South Australia.

We’re only mid-way through Shark Week. So, to honor these seven days dedicated to the immaculate creature we all love – and some fear – we have for you an incredible image captured by Seattle-based photographer Todd Bretl.

For photographer George Probst, Shark Week must be like looking through a family photo album. That's because this photographer's bucket list item turned passion is swimming with great white sharks and taking pictures that will help smash the 'Jaws' stereotype that clings to these majestic (if terrifying) creatures.

"You should've seen it! I was that close to the dude's teeth!" No doubt there was some pretty excited talk going around a South African seal colony recently, after a young pup narrowly escaped a shark attack by balancing on the great white's nose.

Irish wildlife photographer David "Baz" Jenkins captured the decisive moment in an image that's quickly gone viral worldwide.

If the movie Jaws gave you nightmares, then you're probably not well-suited to do the kind of photography that photographer Michael Muller spends his free time doing. Muller dives into the ocean and snaps close-up portraits of deadly sharks, often without a cage for protection. The video above is a short feature on Muller's pastime by the TV show "Last Call With Carson Daly."
