Additional comments:
These pictures where taken on a Whale shark tour operated by Exmouth Dive Centre, and we had Brad Norman on board that day. So the exact locations and other details of the encounters should already be know to your organisation. I've got more pictures and also some video of the whale sharks available.

(The pictures where taken using a Panasonic DMC-TZ3 camera.)
