<p>The Marine Themes Stock Photography Library is a stock photo library specialising
in marine wildlife particularly <a href="http://cumulus.aimtec.net.au/Cumulus5/kaphoto/catalogue.html">underwater
photography</a> of sharks, whales, dolphins, seals, fish of all kinds, dugong,
birds, marine plants, invertebrates and much more. <a href="http://cumulus.aimtec.net.au/Cumulus5/kaphoto/catalogue.html">Our
files</a> include spectacular, rare, dangerous, and amazing animals of all kinds
related to the marine environment and the underwater world.</p>
<p>Marine Themes is a digital stock photography company providing all images in
a web based<a href="http://cumulus.aimtec.net.au/Cumulus5/kaphoto/catalogue.html">
searchable database</a></p>
<p>We specialise in dangerous, cute and colourful marine wildlife captured by
our professional photographers using special underwater camera equipment. We
have extensive <a href="http://cumulus.aimtec.net.au/Cumulus5/kaphoto/catalogue.html">photographs</a>
of the <a href="greatwhite.html">Great White Shark (Carcharodon carcharias)</a>
which is the worlds most dangerous marine animal and the worlds largest feared
predator. <a href="greatwhite.html">Great White Shark</a> photographs include
underwater feeding, abovewater feeding, identification shots, jawing shots with
the Great White Shark's mouth wide open, face shots and behaviour. We even have
<a href="http://cumulus.aimtec.net.au/Cumulus5/kaphoto/catalogue.html">photographs</a>
of more than one <a href="greatwhite.html">Great White Shark</a> together.</p>
<p>Other shark species include rare and deep water species such as <a href="http://cumulus.aimtec.net.au/Cumulus5/kaphoto/catalogue.html">photographs</a>
of the unique Frilled Shark (Chlamydoselachus anguineus) showing full body and
detailed portraits including the unique three pronged teeth used to grasp their
slippery prey. The common name, Frilled Shark, comes from the large encircling
gill slits which our photographs clearly show. We also have <a href="http://cumulus.aimtec.net.au/Cumulus5/kaphoto/catalogue.html">underwater
photographs</a> of deep water bizzare sharks such as the Black Shark (Dalatias
licha) which feeds like the tropical Cookie Cutter Shark (Isistius brasiliensis).
Deep water dogsharks are also included in our underwater photography files.
We have photographs of sharks and rays that no one else has because one of our
underwater photographers specialises in deepwater sharks and rays including
electric rays and skates. We also hold in our digital database of underwater
photographs shots of common shark species such as the tropical Grey Reef Shark
(Carcharhinus amblyrhynchos) or Gray Reef Shark (Carcharhinus amblyrhynchos),
the Whitetip Reef Shark (Triaenodon obesus). For a full list of shark species
see our <a href="species.html">species list.</a></p>

in the Knowledge database. The Knowledge database includes general information
about both common and rare shark species. The following are shark files providing
