Look: Photographing White-spotted Bamboo Shark Eggs
White-spotted Bamboo Shark Egg Casings

Tiny white-spotted bamboo sharks — Chiloscyllium plagiosum — inside their egg casings. The 6-inch pups hatch after 14 weeks. As adults, these carpet sharks are 3 feet long.
HOW I GOT THE SHOT
I shot this with a Canon 50D and Canon’s EF-S17-85mm Image Stabilized zoom lens at 1/5 sec at f/5.6 and ISO 400. I took numerous shots because of the slow shutter speed and the fact that I had to hand-hold the camera. A tripod would have made things easier but was not possible in the crowded aquarium.
