Weightless Underwater Photography by Howard Schatz

Underwater, even lumbering hippos become ballerinas, it is the closest thing we humans could come to being weightless without leaving Earth. In this amazing series of photographs, Howard Schatz takes full advantage of the all the properties of water and pull off the most amazing shots. He loves capturing the optical illusions created by the refraction of light off the water’s surface. Being underwater also lends his models a certain grace that is heightened by the gauze-like material they wear. Howard Schatz is a prolific photographer who has received international acclaim for his work. He rose to stardom in the 1990s with his two collections of underwater photography, Water Dance and Pool Light.
