Beautiful, dynamic place you come from Greg. Lots of great images from SA, above, on and beneath the water!

"PALM BEACH -- Two South Florida divers had a close encounter few would believe. They came face to face with a shark that had a plastic ring around its neck.

John Dickinson and Chip Garber not only saw it, they have proof. They videotaped it.

They were with a group that was diving on a wreck off Palm Beach called "The Princess Ann" when they noticed a nurse shark lying lifeless on the bottom of the ocean.

"We thought the shark was dead, however after pulling her tail she began to swim away," Dickinson said.

They noticed the shark had a large Frisbee-like ring around its neck that prevented it from eating.

They decided to make a brave move. Garber was able to approach the shark from behind, grab the ring and remove it.

"You can tell in the video that the shark had lost a lot of weight. Hopefully the shark will begin eating again and live a long healthy life," Dickinson said."
