Description
An underwater scene depicts a significant environmental issue. A transparent plastic bag, shaped like an iceberg, dominates the frame under the water's surface. Above the water, a real iceberg floats on the horizon under a cloudy sky. Two whales swim near the plastic bag, their presence contrasting with the artificial structure. The water's gradient ranges from clear at the surface to deep blue below. The lighting is diffused, highlighting the textures of the plastic bag and creating a somber mood. The composition emphasizes the size disparity between the natural environment and the plastic pollution.
