The Twins

Photograph by Fabrice Guerin , National Geographic Your Shot

Every year, a sardine run occurs in the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico, says Your Shot member Fabrice Guerin , who adds that this is when it s possible to spot the fastest fish in the ocean the sailfish hunting fish shoals. They drill the balls of terrified fish, offering us a stunning show, he writes. When I saw these two sailfish going toward the sardines against the sun, I shot as quickly as possible.
