Entries started pouring in as soon as Scuba Diver's inaugural photo competition was announced in February 2007.

Hundreds of contestants from more than 25 countries entered, with a total number of images in the thousands.
Entire families took part, including five members of the Sarmiento family from the Philippines.
And the youngest photographer to enter (in the Young Underwater Photographer category) is just 12 years old!

Congratulations to all the winners, and to those who didn't place: Don't worry, the 2008 Through the Lens photo competition is just around the corner (details to be announced in the upcoming issue and on the Web site)!
