Hello,
As a scuba diver and water aficionado, I would want to throw out the following caveats about water bondage.
The problem with a snorkel is the linear depth between the lungs and the surface of the water. Unpressurized, as the person goes deeper and deeper in the water it is harder for the lungs to breath in air through a snorkel due to the water pressure. I believe it is somewhere around the 3-4 feet of depth that the water pressure is sufficient to force the person's lungs up the snorkel, which is not really something I want my submissive to experience. (Lung play = hard limit for me)
Secondly, when using pressurized air, realize that as air bubbles go up in depth towards the surface, the volume of the air expands. What this means is that if you take a breath of pressurized air, hold your breath, and go up 3-5 feet in the water, odds are fairly good the volume of air will expand and rupture (embolism) your lung tissue. There are a number of things which air in your blood supply will do, not the least are strokes, blocking blood vessels feeding things like the coronary muscle, etc. The only real treatment for this involves repressurizing the person (making the bubbles smaller) and waiting for the body to convert them from gas back into the blood liquid form. It is a game of statistics whether the bubbles will cut off blood flow to a vital organ before or after getting them to a compression chamber.
The woman in the tank is a bit deeper than I would have my sub submerged. The bottom of her chest and the surface of the water seems about 2 feet from the picture, which would make breathing (for her) difficult and I would have some concern about collapsing her lungs from the water pressure. To me, the nose an inch or so below the surface of the water is just hunky dory, especially with a head restraint in place.
Just my opinion, could be wrong, but there ya go.
