Hi, All . . .
I've created a new album on the Yahoo site called
Hi-Vis Dive Sites.
I've temporarily added pics of submersibles in
very clear water, mainly for inspiration. I may remove them later - they
say nothing about locations.
The object of this album is to collect u/w pics
of the clearest dive locations in the world THAT ARE ACCESSIBLE BY
SUBMERSIBLES.
The pics need not contain any pics whatsoever of
subs, although that would be a bonus. The object is to tell people [a]
where to go [b] what vis to expect after they launch. That's
it. It may evolve into something bigger and better. Let's
see.
Keep in mind when you post that items like
launching, permissions, local conditions (boat traffic, current, snags, etc.)
and more are critical. If unsure, SAY SO. Any interested parties
can research the area on their own.
The album is open to all for
uploading. In order to benefit the PSUBS members I only ask
that you keep the following in mind:
[1] the pics show extremely clear
water
[2] the images are of reasonably high
resolution, are in focus and exposed properly - your judgement
call
[3] the location and visibility are included in
the description of the pic - very important
[4] other necessary details are
included
Bright ideas are appreciated.
Please share with us. I'm hoping this category takes on a life of its
own.
Oh, yeah, one caveat: PULEAZE, do
not feel hurt, insulted, crushed, denigrated, ignored, belittled or
otherwise impaired if I remove any images.
First of all, you probably ripped them
off the 'Net so they weren't yours to begin with. The only images that
will be removed are either technically off or ones that don't
suit the category.
I deeply regret that even pictures taken
during Mile Deep Club activities will be removed unless labeled with location
and visibility. No
exceptions. ;-)
Cheers,
Rick in Vancouver
