Underwater Photos That Mimic the Look of Baroque PaintingsHawaii-based photographer Christy Lee Rogers specializes in creating dreamlike photos of people underwater. Her project Reckless Unbound shows people swirling around one another while wearing colorful outfits. The photos are reminiscent of the paintings of old Baroque masters, who would often paint people floating around in heavenly realms.
Rogers creates her photos in swimming pools at night. The scenes are illuminated with bright off-camera lights, and the shoots often last two to four hours each.
You can see more of her work over on her website.

I wanted to try my hand at painting different ethnicities, but I didn’t want to be stuck painting just people for a prolonged period of time - so I decided to try a sphinxes of the world series. It had the added benefit of forcing me to paint different kinds of backgrounds and clothing, so it was a good exercise all around.
