I love this photograph, taken by Dmitry Vasyanovich, of an encounter with Lucy, at Guadalupe, Mexico.
I will show this to my fifteen-year-old daughter, Courtney, for a bit of perspective. She won’t go in a room if there is a spider in it.
I hope the diver learns to be more careful, though, or the next time he goes down he will be able to wear fingerless gloves. Or a sleeveless suit.

Such a great photo! But there’s no way I would have done what the diver did.

I’ve never seen such a horrifying ‘Lucy’ in all my life! But what a great name for a shark. In contrast my experience with ‘petting’ zoos stretched only as far as llamas.

I know, frightening Lucy! My youngest daughter once had a sleepover at a friend’s house. When she came home, she told me, eyes wide as saucers: “Dad, Nicole has got the scariest cat in the world ever!” “What’s it called?” “Barbara.” “The scariest cat in the world is called Barbara?!!” She couldn’t see the cause of my amusement.
You want to be careful around those llamas. May not take your arm off, but will spit you right in the eye 🙂

Sharks are such awesome creatures!
And I am with Courtney on this one! I’d rather join the shark without the cage than a spider.

I have a thing for sharks since watching Jaws as a kid. I also watched Arachnophobia too, but spiders . . . Nah!
