underwater life toys

Jules Verne wrote his novel 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, and British photographer Jason Isley created an original version of what the underwater life of people could look like. True, instead of real people, he used toy figures placed on a colorful reef in Borneo and Indonesia. See how the toy people master the underwater depths, communicate with fish and other marine organisms.

5. Janitor in front of a mantis shrimp.

6. Underwater young gardener. Jason says that he glued coins or nails to the base of the figures so that they would not be carried away by the current. And sometimes the fish grabbed the figurines and carried them away in an unknown direction.

8. Once again, a team of brave scientists in special suits is exploring marine mushrooms this time.
