Its always been a dream of mine to be a model in an underwater photo shoot. There’s just something so interesting about pictures taken underwater, whether it be crazy diving shots or people fully decked out in awesome costumes. Unfortunately for me I’m not nearly photogenic enough for a random photographer to decide to use me for his photos. (Several rather, erm, interesting Facebook pictures prove that fact.) So instead I searched through our database and found these excellent shots of people underwater to share. I’m livin’ the dream! Well, sort of.
