Underwater Photo Challenge WEEK 3: 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.

This is a special week as well as I DOUBLED the prize for to 2 SBD in honor of Earth Day!

A huge thank you again to everyone who entered and helped spread the word through re-steeming the contest post: https://steemit.com/photofeed/@underwaterwoman/underwater-photography-challenge-week-3-or-2x-prizes-or-earth-day-special-or-underwaterphoto.

Andddd, the third week's winner of 2 SBD/STEEM is.... Hive account@narchuckl!

Hive account@narchuck's comment along with this entry was: "If the outside is freezing and the water is frozen, this is not a reason not to dive. Ice diving is not easy, but it has its own charm. Earth and sky are changing places. Now the firmament is above you. And light breaks through the meters of ice. It would be fine if it was not so cold))"

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

Honorable mentions go to:
