About the Scribbler
Hugh Powell is a little weary of big-ticket items like Pluto, the Mars rover, and small fossilized humans getting all the science news coverage. Keep an eye out here for wisps and scraps you won't find anywhere else. Particularly about the ocean, which is really cool and, honestly speaking, much bigger than you think.-
What a great (and terrifying) photo! Those teeth are incredible. Glad you weren’t in the water at the time.
Holy moly! Think I’ll stay on dry land. What a great shot!
When was this photo taken?
Hey Hannah – thanks for demanding facts with your story. According to the embedded file info, it was taken last Saturday (the 16th), at just before 9 in the morning.
