Description
this is in Athens, Texas and originally was a quarry. in 1981 it was converted into a place for people to scuba dive. the water is very clear.there is an old Clint Eastwood house boat along with a C130 fuselage sunk for people to explore. I think it is being treated with clorine
thanks for having a look and any comments

Beautiful place! Excellent photo! :)
oh I would love to dive in here. Love the blue green water, such a relaxing image. :)
Such a beautiful aqua colour of the water! I've never actually been scuba diving... but I think in this water, I just might give it a go! Lovely capture... most refreshing scene and a delightful atmosphere captured, Richard! Excellent artwork and composition!
A great use for an old quarry and the water does look a different colour but at least the clorine keeps it clear.
Nice shot! I think I'll pull up an inner tube and relax.
Have an abandoned stone quarry near where I live (google France Park, Indiana)...miners struck an underground stream and in a few days the huge hole was filled with pristine,spring fed water. At the bottom of the quarry still sits a train engine and a caboose, among other antiquities. Years later it was opened up as a public beach/swimming hole. After concession stands,campers,scuba divers and countless sunbathers soaked in tanning oil...the water is now a nasty greenish brown hue. Too bad...used to be able to go atop the cliff walls and see clear to the bottom of the water....over 100 ft. deep.
looks so clean and blue nice shot
A beautiful place to relax....
Beautiful Richard, love that Bermuda colored water!
