Fire in the Water

Tired of the office work, I went out to a peat bog hidden in the forest. Since I saw the paintings of William Turner at the Tate Gallery, with this intense light of yellow and red, and where the objects are barely recognizable, I always dreamed to realize photographs inspired by this style - under water. Of course this is why I went to a peat bog: the ponds are filled with red tannin water. The bright sun on the sky just added the dramatic light I was looking for.
