Would love to see what pics you all have or would like to share aty least, photo's tell a thousand words and without em I would not have found so many cool old hunting grounds for my detecting! These pictures here were taken today at my local auction house...couldn't afford to buy em so thought bugger it will just copy them :) 1st pic is entitled NGAPAPA No2 NEVIS (very cool) 2nd pic is of the shipwrecked ARIADNE which came ashore near the waitaki mouth, Otago (see insert pic) ((also very cool)) madsonicboating attached the following image(s):

Shipwreck diving is always cool. Ive watched the Atocha dive several times on the tele and enjoy it each time. All that GOLD makes ya eyes bulge. .
