St. Eustatius (Statia) Underwater - A scuba diver (Nancy) practices bouyancy control in mid-ocean. Notice the one glove, which indicates she is coming up a dive. Gloves are prohibited in the protected waters of Statia (a marine park), but divers often wear one glove to protect their hand while ascending fixed mooring lines. © Rick Collier
