Just came across a collection of large higher resolution images of various artificial reefs in the world.
 The Oriskany, a decommissioned aircraft carrier, was towed 24 miles off the coast of Pensacola, Florida, Wednesday, May 17, 2006, to form an artificial reef.  A different view of the Vandenberg off the Customs House in Key West.  A view to the north to Key West over the resting place of the Vandenberg.  Sending tanks to sea as reefs in the Gulf of Thailand.  Subway cars to reefs from New York off Delaware. This reminds me of an early AR effort in the early 1960's with street cars in California.  Not sure what sort of charges they used to scuttle the frigate HMNZS Wellington off New Zealand but they do look impressive!  The initial sinking of the Spiegel Grove off Key Largo in 2002. There are quite a few more artificial reef images in this collection: http://www.stumbleupon.com/su/27U6KB...-world/100042/ .
