Another Photo of the Day from former Gadling blogger Willy.

This one features a Lemon Shark, so named because of the ripe lemons they usually keep pinched between their teeth and gums. Lemon Sharks like to do this to keep their breath smelling fresh; they are, after all, the so-called Gentlemen of the Seas.

Lemon Sharks are also very generous sharks. They simply love it when divers reach deep into their serrated pie holes and pull out the lemons they have cached there. I don't see any lemons on this particularly fine specimen so that means Willy must have already plucked them out. Great job, Willy. Keep up the good work!

Is It Better To Have Your Eyes Open Or Closed?

So you really enjoyed your spot of snorkelling in the Caribbean? Such pretty coloured coral and a profusion of vibrant fish. And the water was so warm... There's not a lot of Nemo-lookalike clown fish in the verdant valleys of Wales, so maybe that's why the locals have come up with Bog Snorkelling. On August 27 the sleepy Welsh town of Llanwrtyd Wells (try saying that when you're underwater) comes alive with the World Bog Snorkelling Championships.

Contestants have to negotiate two lengths of a muddy 60 yard trench wearing snorkels and flippers (wetsuits optional but recommended). Last year's champs drew more than a 100 participants including brave snorkellers from as far away as Russia and New Zealand.

Is there anything my mad Kiwi compatriots won't do?

Thanks to stepbar on Flickr for the pic
