It is with much excitement and honor that we present to you the winners of the first annual Wetpixeland DivePhotoGuide International Underwater Photography Competition. The two popular underwater imaging websites have teamed up to celebrate the beauty and delicacy of the marine environment by developing the first instance of a new, annual, international underwater photography competition. For our inaugural event, only digital entries were accepted, including both images taken from digital cameras or scanned from film. Over $25,000 in prizes were awarded and we congratulate the winners from around the globe!
