Zero-gravity Dreams

These photos were taken underwater, with illumination composed of 6 artificial lights used for movie shooting . It took a lot of efforts to make experiments on the lighting effect. To make the differentiation from the often seen commercial advertisements taken underwater, I try to display this them in an aesthetic way. I intent to create a mysterious, dreamlike and surrealistic atmosphere, along with dramatic lighting effects, classical warm hues, and evident light and shade contrast, to echo to the masterpieces during the period of Baroque age. This series salutes especially to two of my favorite masters: Caravaggio, Rubens and Dalí.
