Last year Alex started a very popular topic in which we were supposed to post our best shots of 2005. There were some amazing images posted:

http://wetpixel.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=10989

Continuing with the tradition, I am asking now that you post your best shot of 2006. Remember, only one image allowed and a short explanation of why you consider this your best shot. Here is mine:



Nothing too unique or especially difficult about it, just brings me memories of one of my best dive trips. Taken with the D2x, Nikon 16mm fisheye and 2 Ikelites SS200.

Now let's see yours!
