It’s summer and all I can think of is WATER! SPLASH!
I grew up swimming in the ocean and in pools all the time in Brazil. But I realized that since I moved to the US, somehow that custom faded away. Perhaps the climate and the water temperature didn’t entice me as much. I miss it though! I miss the feeling of water enveloping me and I want to enjoy it on regular basis. So I’ve decided to join the local pool and go for regular swims. It should be fun.
Besides, it seems like underwater inspiration is all over. First, the Antro catalogue, we all loved… Then, last week, I was lucky enough to be part of a fun underwater shoot (which unfortunately I cannot share due to client/ timing reasons). And now, these incredible images by Elena Kalis.

Aren’t they absolutely lovely?
There is very little information available about this photographer, but apparently, these images were taken in the Bahamas.

And for all mermaids out there: My magic friend ~ Dancing Mermaid ~ is having another fantastic Mermaid Camp. This time for the actual little mermies. It starts today, but mermaids can join in anytime and follow at their own pace. Hurry and sign up. :)

So… How about playing with some disposable underwater cameras this summer?
Or perhaps a waterproof case?
Do you recommend any underwater gadgets?
Please share links of your underwater photos too, if you have any.
Have a great week, everybody! Make it a refreshing one :)

Beautiful images! Great post!
love love love! thank you for posting these.
i was at the beach yesterday :D
so refreshing
Oh wow, these pictures are uber-inspiring!!! I have the Olympus underwater camera and I’ve been meaning to upgrade for a longtime, but it does its job for now. I’m obsessed with the water as well. I’m either swimming in the pool or in the ocean, surfing, diving, and if none of those dreaming of doing one of them. Have fun at the pool! :)
OOooh I love these!! I’ve never seen Elena Kalis’ work before. So lovely! And I can’t wait to see the shoot YOU were a part of!
When we were in holly’s class, I posted the work of Alix Malka and Michael Muller (i think at the time i only had 10 readers, so no one really saw them! haha) Apologies for posting a link to my own blog here I think you’d really like the photos! Something about underwater photography that is so dreamy!
