UNDERWATERMELON

There's an afternoon when watermelons are best enjoyed underwater.

This theme is a marriage of my new-found passion in underwater portrait photography and my all-time favourite food fetish subject, one which started many years ago with watermelons. And so this bright red juicy fruit has now made a comeback, this time against the blue hues of a pool bathed in midday sunlight. The result is a beautiful contrast of red and blue. :">

Special thanks to my absolutely cooperative model Jeff Ling for enduring the gulps after gulps of chlorine-soaked melon juice, all in the name of art.
