Shark in the water

Just a quick post with a couple photos taken during a walk along the beach with Dorothy in Orange Beach, AL. The water was shallow and this area was surrounded by two sandbars. Someone spotted a shark in the water that had apparently found himself inside this area and was looking for a way out. While it was trying to find a path back into the deeper Gulf waters, it came within 10 feet of the beach where we were standing.
