About

An overhead photographic portrait captures a figure submerged just beneath the surface of dark, rippling natural water. The individual floats horizontally with long red hair fanned out across the currents, creating bright light reflections on the fluid surface. The surrounding water is deep green and black, showing gentle movement and distortion around the body. Natural light filters through from above, catching the contours of the figure and the ripples of the stream. This evocative photographic work was created by photographer Sylve Colless.
