Scars of a Survivor
Photographed in Isla Guadalupe. A mature great white shark glides beneath the bright surface, its scars revealing years of survival. I waited for the moment it crossed the light, capturing its strength and quiet presence in black and white.

About Artist
Gerardo Del Villar
I am an explorer and lifelong ocean lover drawn to powerful, misunderstood animals. From sharks to orcas and other great predators, I’ve spent years seeking encounters that teach me respect, humility, and wonder. My images come from that passion a desire to understand these creatures up close and to share their stories so others can see them with the same fascination I feel.
