content: There has been an influx of shark sitings in my area lately.  It's kept me out of the water a little, but I'm going to get back in.  I also enjoy taking pictures of others riders/waves while in the water.  So I often find myself in the water with no board.  That is when I am the most scared.    I wish no one ever has a bad interaction with a shark, but I am constantly aware it can happen at any time.
