ITK 2008 a Photo Retrospective

I have just started reviewing my above water photographs from the Keys Invasion (since I did not bring my underwater rig this trip). I will post as I can get to them the next few days.

I think it is fitting to start my retrospective with an image of our "fearless leader." Without his inspiration to develop the Scubaboard and his tireless efforts over the years, the ITK 2008 would not exist (nor would this post).

Thank you Pete!

---Bob

Kudos to Howard and Michelle

Everyone who attended knows that this event would not get off the ground without the hard work of a lot of dedicated board members. Without slighting the efforts of all who contibute to this event, a special kudos basket to Howard and Michelle.

I got to meet Alcina

Many have posted comments along the lines of "it is great to finally meet my board buddies." I was really looking forward to meeting Alcina. I have admired her underwater photography and her patience in managing the Scubaboard Underwater Photography Forum. Thank you for answering my granddaughter's constant questions regarding whale sharks.

Pirate's alphabet - "I" and "R"

After several year of diving with Gary's outfit, I am pleased to call him a friend. I think we can all do that.

This is the actual, real deal, no BS catch.






And this is what it looked like after Michelle told everyone the story a few times.






Don't worry, Chip and Howard, we will do better next year.
