Photo Contest is closed.

This is a really cool place for photographers to share pictures and do something good with them. The Marine Photobank is a place where people can upload images that have to do with Marine Conservation, could be pictures of shark finning, coral bleaching, trash, etc. Then people like non-profits...

This is copied from an email I received because it explains it better than I can. The deadline is next friday and you can win a trip to the Galapagos! Can't wait to see the winners of this one: The Marine Photobank is hosting our 4th annual ocean conservation photo contest, calling on...

Hey everyone Divers Direct is organizing a Scrub-and-Grub event where people are coming together from all over South Florida to clean up the beaches and reefs that we all love so much. You can find more information here. Join Divers Direct for our first ever Scrub & Grub Event! Locations all...

Has anybody heard of the site ScubaNation.com I just came upon it a few days ago and wanted to know if anyone else from scubaboard is using it. Its kind of like a facebook for divers where you can log all of your dives and they are displayed on your profile. It has some articles and movie...

I just thought I would share a funny dive quote i heard on the boat last weekend when i was diving and wanted to see some other funny/stupid comments they have heard on scuba boats. This advanced open water diver surfaces from his second 100+ foot dive of the day and says, "These new dive...

haha im not sure about at 200 probably wont do that naked, maybe the 500th or 1000th. Too bad I missed the 69th dive haha. As for the whole picture thing I do use a hog rig with a crotch strap so sorry to disappoint everyone but it was not as revealing as you may have thought haha.

I finally did it! I got my 100th dive over winter vacation in Jamaica. And yes I did do it naked, which I will say was very interesting especially with my family. The divemasters were pretty shocked to haha. I do have a picture to prove it if you don't believe me but i didnt think that was a...

I went to bonaire last summer for 6 days of diving. I did 5 dives every day except for one day with 6 dives and the final day of diving we only did 2. I dove on nitrox for the entire trip but my sister and mother both dove on air. We all got relatively close to no deco a couple times, me even...

Those are excellent shots for a beginner, I really like that first shot. Did you use a strobe that looks like a lot of color if it was just a camera and housing? I agree with gregorio in that getting buoyancy down before using a camera is probably a good idea. Not only will it help you get...

I don't think that the point in the movie was that everyone knew it and just didn't care. I think he was more saying that the scientists, the environmental activists, etc. know but they just haven't been able to display the problem to mainstream society because of the media's bias toward what...

This isn't an instrumental band but it is an amazing song for an underwater photo show. Its called Breathe by Keller Williams and the String Cheese Incident. Also if you are mixing above water and below water shots I really like Ziggy Marley's Good ol Days, very islandy feel if the pictures are...

It kind of took me a while before I got around to post these pictures because I just started college at the U of Miami but here they go. I thought my pictures turned out really well, its only my third trip every using my camera and first using the strobe. I would love some advice because now...

I will post more on Rob Stewart's talk after I see the movie again this friday. I remember basically all of the information he talked about and that was in the film but it all kind of blends together and I don't want to ruin the movie for everyone. So once I see the movie again and it premieres...

It really is incredible I can't wait until it is released everywhere to see the reactions to the film by the general public. It is actually my favorite movie this film was really necessary as the shark finning business has gone on wayyyy to long and for ridiculous reasons. How can there be no...

I just got back from a sneak preview of this movie at the University of Miami. This movie is one of the most moving movies that i have ever seen in my life. It is brilliantly made and exposes some of the most disgusting practices in the fishing of sharks. The underwater scenes are remarkable and...

I love the torus, it was the first BC I bought and I am very pleased with it. I dont know about the wing attachment being a pain it is actually really easy, for me at least. I realized just how much I liked it when I went to Cancun this past week for a mostly non-diving vacation and rented a bc...

You can try out mine as well if you would like. I have a Deep Sea Supply 26# torus with hog rigging. If you know Splash Dive Center in Alexandria they sell Dive Rite BP/Ws and have some for rent as well. They have pool sessions the first and third wed of every month for $25 plus whatever it...

Haha yeah the pool is clearly not 3 km but it can seem like that if you try to walk it near the end of the day ;) It is actually a quarter mile which is pretty huge for a pool, the biggest in cancun if i am not mistaken. I would have loved to do more diving but the trip was a birthday present...

Hey I just posted my report, I think I went diving with you on the 5th? I was the 17 year old who hadn't slept the night before haha I don't know if you remember me. I had so much fun with MAD he really deserves the 3 reccomendations that have been posted in the last week and I am sure many more...
