New York Underwater Photographic Society Launches New Website to Celebrate One Year Anniversary 

May 31, 2008 (New York, NY) -- To celebrate the one year anniversary of The New York Underwater Photographic Society, the group has launched a new website. Over 200 NYUPS participants have enjoyed some of the featured events in the last year, which have included presentations from legendary underwater photographer David Doubilet, virtuoso Howard Schatz, as well as pro photographers such as Ethan Gordon, Doug Sloss, Jason Heller, and others. NYUPS events are held in a theatre setting with open bars and networking opportunities for the dynamic growing community of underwater photographers & videographers from NY, NJ, CT, PA and beyond.

The new website, NYUPS.org, is built on a social network platform and provides an opportunity for those residing outside of the local region to participate as well. Photographers & videographers are invited to create profiles and become members of NYUPS through the new website. Membership and all NYUPS events are free of charge and supported by DivePhotoGuide and a handful of gracious sponsors such as H2O Photo Pros, Archipelago Fleet, and PADI.

NYUPS is committed to promoting underwater imagery by hosting high quality events, creating an environment for underwater photographers & videographers to share and learn, and supporting marine conservation efforts and the local community. We hope to see you at an upcoming event or on the new website.
