ENGLISH SEASIDE SPLIT SHOTS
From a floating jelly fish to a relaxed seal, Britain’s unappreciated beach life is captured above and below the water. The split level photographs were taken by marine biologist Andrew Pearson, 32, after he spent time researching underwater life in Cornwall and Dorset. ‘People don't always realise what is underwater just a few feet from a UK beach and how interesting it can be,’ says Andrew, of Southampton. ‘I find 'split level' or 'half and half' photography captures a unique perspective not often seen by many people.
