Underwater Explosions


Ever since I was a child, if you gave me a pot of water, paint and a paint brush I would spend hours trying to make patterns of 'paint explosions' in the water. I would load the brush with a bright colour and no sooner dart it into the pot and watch the paint disperse through the water. Occasionally I would manage to make an explosion that looked half decent by my child like standards. Most of the time it would just look rubbish. Never did I make one that looked like these.


Produced by Mark Mawson these images are only the beggining of how Mr. Mawson explores the beauty and elegance that movement underwater has. I love the way the different shadows and highlights make each 'explosion' looks so soft and rounded instead of wet, cold and messy.
