Wow, Chris,,,wonderful shot. Pardon the pun but the fish add just a bit of symbolism here too.

Unbelivable underwater sculpture. Reminds me knowledge about underwater Greek finds. Great photo.

Real nice subject matter and good composition of it. It's too bad that it has noise and the white balance is a bit blown out.

I live in this area and have been to this place multiple times. I have NEVER seen the water this clear. I don't know when this was taken but I am impressed. This is in about 15-20 feet of water and unless you have been here you can't appreciate how good this photo really is. GREAT JOB!! For this capture I would give you a 10!!

I saw this when in the Keys, but not with such clarity and vivacity (it was just a few days after a hurricane). Good job!
