Once again this year, the LAUPS Shootout is not constrained to particular LAUPS charters. Instead, we’re opening up the whole month of October, 2013 for our members to take pictures that can be entered in the Shootout competition, to be voted on at the November meeting.

All images and video must be taken during the month of October 2013.

You can dive on your own, use images taken on our two-day Truth trip October 26-27, or any other beach or boat dives you do during the month.

For more info, see the shootout rules.

Sign up for our trip on the Truth here.

I hope everyone is able to participate!
