A photograph of a deep blue underwater scene taken near the island of Formentera in the Mediterranean Sea. In the image there is a young woman who is gracefully floating a few metres deep under the surface. She has long pale pink hair and she is wearing a voluminous silk parachute skirt which is flowing behind her. The sun is shining through the surface of the water and creating striking beams of light.
