Underwater Project: photos of people fighting nature

by | 11th, March 2013

IN Underwater Project, Mark Tipple records people below the braking wave. He says:

Their faces contort, their muscles tighten in reaction to the struggle for power with the ocean. They surface when the surge has passed. Then breathe. They are unaware that a camera has captured it all; from straining arms clawing at sand to eyes squeezed shut against the bite of salt. Mark Tipple holds his camera steady in the melting foam, and makes his way to shore.

You might call it the sublime panic. You can buy his prints here.
