Haunting underwater portraits by Jacob Sutton (3 images)

This photo series by Jacob Sutton is really bizarre / awesome.  It’s a bit cliche to say that photos are ‘haunting’ – but I don’t know any other way to describe these underwater portraits.

They’re very ghostly and ominous, yet at the same time feel serene.  I go back and forth between trying to decide if the girl just drowned or perhaps if she’s just slipped into a dream.  Cool effect, I wish there were more.
