| First topic message reminder :Photographic Spash In 2011 - St Abbs, Scotland This event takes place each year at the marine reserve at St Abbs in Scotland. What is a 'Spash In'? Simple its a day when divers hit the water to take pictures in the same area, pick thier best and enter them to be judged by the public on the Sunday. This event attracts professionals as well as casual divers, this year there was 25 entrants. The registered divers head off to take what ever they can find then check in at the end of the day. There are three catorgories to enter - Marine Life Portrait (close up) - Resever Atmospheric (wide angle) and Most Humorous. With awards for the best beginner in each, along with a first, second and third and prizes for all winners.
This year there was a really good turn out from the ProScuba Friends .Ed, Skies, Doc, Sammy, Pete and Will all entering the photo competition I don't have thier images to show you - but here are the results MARINE PORTRAIT BEST BEGINNER - Sammy (Birthday Girl) RESERVE ATMOSPHERIC
