Congrats to the winners - I saw a lot of wetpixel members in there - too many to list! I also have to point out that I was THERE when Karl took his 2nd place photo :-)

Cheers

Rand,

Where was the photo of the Zero taken?

The water Seems a lot clearer than the ones I have come across.. Very Nice

Hi Tony,

Kimbe Bay. PNG.

From Walindi Resort, I did two dives on the Zero, the first, the water was very clear but the second dive, it was much more clouded. It's in 50' (18m) and not all that far from shore. Believe there's a river that empties into the bay.

I was very happy we had a second chance to do the dive because on the first one, I'd spent all my time shooting and realized afterwards, that I hadn't really "Looked" at the plane. It's condition is unbeliveable really. The canopy is shoved back. It looks like the Pilot was able to get out before it sunk. No one could find any indetifiying numbers so, it's a bit of a mystery. But I found it very easy to look up in the sky and imagine this thing coming down...

Here's a shot from that second dive. Converted because of the crappy vis:
