The Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science at the University of Miami in Florida holds an annual underwater photography contest. The 2011 winners have just been announced.
Here are a few of my favorites. Tobias Friedrich of Germany won the Best Overall award with this picture titled "Two Gobies ( Bryaninops natans)" taken near MarsaAlam, Egypt.
Erika Antoniazzo of Malaysia took 3rd place in the Macro section with this picture of a Nudibranchand mantis shrimp, taken near Seraya Beach, Bali, Indonesia.
Jackie Campbell of Ireland took 3rd place in the Wide-angle section with this picture of Barracuda in the Sudanese Red Sea.
There are many more photographs at the link, along with winners of previous competitions. Recommended viewing.
