Country:  | Cool underwater photos
The site is in Russian, so I don't know where or when these were taken. The only plane I think I've identified correctly is the 11th one down, which looks like a P-40. Pretty fish too! WebÏàðê.ðó: Ïîäâîäííûå ñîêðîâèùà (69 ôîòî)

Charles | You, too? Yeah, I'm blocked out at my work, also. We used to have access to You Tube, but they blocked it out a few weeks ago; too many people playing on the Internet, I guess.
