Well I just had to get in on the act didn't I? But no namby pamby easy air-breathing photography for me! No, I went underwater! This photo was taken from my friends deep sea submersible at the bottom of the Mariana Trench, 6.8 miles down. As you can see, there wasn't very much light, but it is just possible to discern a few rather scary looking squid and some seamonster kind of thing lurking in a hitherto unexplored underwater cavern. I was lucky to escape alive!

A fantastic scientifically presented evidence of a NEW deep water species. As one can clearly see, it has only THREE rows of scales on the brow, which undoubtedly distinguish it from Ictiotantarus quadropecalintus. Congratulation, your evidence will change the modern science of deep see worms for ever!

seen. Your photography skills are simply amazing. On the basis of the photo alone you have earned a 10+10. Of course I haven't even gotten to your incredible layout and I don't think I will.

Since you made such awesome comments on my black page I feel it's only fair that I do the same for yours. I can't discern the squid because it released it's ink when your flash went off. I can see the black shadow of some type of creature hovering just outside of the submersible. Good heavens! I think it's Grandpa David in a black wet suit. This is one of the most fascinating photos I've ever...

The 'sea monster' came out surprisingly well considering the pressure and depth and the fact that breathing water must have made it very tiresome holding the camera. I assume the flash did not reach very far, as we can see in the photo, due to being squashed by the pressure. It certainly looks a bit flattened at the edges. Great page and brilliant photography in difficult conditions.

Well I have to say that the balck marble frame really finishes this off very, though I say it myself. I could have sworn you told me it was a Brownie 127 box camera, but I suppose it could not have been with pressures over 1000+ atmospheres. I take it form your coments that you decided not to breath air on this trip down to the bottom of the ocean. Was it difficult breathing salt water?
