Underwater Photo Challenge WEEK 6: WINNER ANNOUNCEMENT:

After deciding that Steemit really needed a thriving #underwaterphoto tag, and launching a photo challenge to kick it all off, I'm excited to announce the third week's challenge winner.

A huge thank you again to everyone who entered and helped spread the word through re-steeming the contest post: https://steemit.com/travel/@underwaterwoman/underwater-photography-challenge-week-6-enter-your-underwaterphoto-and-win.

Andddd, week 6's winner of 1 SBD/STEEM is.... @gsm1974!

@gsm1974's comment along with this entry was: "A nice lobster I found in Antigua while on vacation in 2016."

This week's choice was a hard one. There was a wide-range of underwater portraits and marinelife shots.

Honorable mentions go to:

Accompanied also with such an interesting story: "This time a photo shot with a XiaoYi Sports Camera during my honeymoon trip to Tanzania. To be exact it was taken next to Mnemba Island - called "Millionaire's Island" by the locals ( they'll tell you it is owned by Bill and Melinda Gates or was owned by Steve Jobs :) ). In fact it's a luxury lodge (1200$ per person per night - with max 24 guests on the island )"
