[Amisha]

Hi,

I am a recently qualified BSAC sports diver. I did it in England earlier this year.

Just wanted to say hello, and also ask adivce on a couple of things,

have just moved to DC for a while, so if there is any good diving near by - mayland/virginia - would be good to know

also plaiing a christmas dive trip to somehwere in latin america, is at that hopeless stage of planning where suggestions would be useful. I know there are places that are amzing in the summer, but i'm wondering whats great at this time of year (dec/jan)

also just buoght a camera - sony cyber shot, so also any advice on how to use that under water would be cool

sorry if its too many questions........

love amisha x

Hey there Amisha!

You've found the right place! I can't really help you with any of those things (though I went to high school and college in Virginia), but there are forums for everything you're after.

For your DC area diving needs, check out The Mid Atlantic Bottom Feeders Club forum at:
http://www.scubaboard.com/f59-mid-atlantic-bottom-feeders.html

Looks like you found the Central and South America travel forum. And there are a ton of great photographers here. Be sure to post some pictures! Poke around and you'll find info on just about all things SCUBA here. Enjoy and welcome!

Howdy!

And welcome to SB - the biggest, the best, the fastest growing, and the friendliest! If you'll simply click ScubaBoard.com above, you'll be taken to our long list of forums, a wealth of information and resources. My favorite is at the bottom: Singles Dive Club. Your questions are fine, BTW, and we have respective forums for all those subjecs, too.

It would help in future diving discussions if you'd complete your Profile with location - and seperately - your Dive Info. You can use the Quick Links above to reach those easily. Sizing a photo for your profile or Avatar can be a challenge; I'm a fumbling amateur, but I get the job done, if you'd like any help?

PM me if I can help you learn your way around; that is - click my username to the upper left, then follow the prompts to send me a "Personal Message."

WELCOME to ScubaBoard Amisha!!!!
I hope to see you continue to post throughout the forums on ScubaBoard. Five posts are a healthy start, since there's a ton of information to be had from our members, I expect you'll continue to find things to enter.

Now for my stock message, which is still under construction: I really do have to work on modifying this note!!!
This is a great place to meet people, talk about diving, and get information on just about any aspect of diving -or other subjects sometimes- that you can think of. Roaming through the forums is great help for me.
Now get wet with us and dive into the forums to ask questions, answer those that you can and even chat with folks about diving dreams and nightmares. ScubaBoard is a great place to spend your required Surface Intervals.
When you post a question, be as sure as you can that it's in the right forum or you'll probably find it moved.
The folks here are passionate about their diving, some about their specialty, so the reading can get very interesting, sometimes very hot.
Don't forget, if you haven't already done it, to fill out you profile as completely as reasonable, it'll save you being asked and having to repeat the information often.
Enjoy!

Tom

Welcome to ScubaBoard! :happywave

Congratulations on the new certification!

You may want to ask about Maryland dive locations in our Mid-Atlantic Bottom Feeders forum, find answers to your Latin-American dive travel questions in our Central & South America forum and learn tips about using your camera in our Underwater Photography forum.

Don't forget to fill out your profile and dive info, so that we can add context to your future posts. Also, once we know where you are geographically from your profile, you may find that you'll have a whole bunch of new dive buddies to choose from locally.

Dive safe!

Christian

P.S. Due to the high volume of new posts in the Introductions and Greets forum, it's not always possible to keep up with all the new posts here. So, please help me out and send me a PM if you post anything you want me to read or repsond to in this forum.
