"The first shoot I took like this was an accident, but I loved it. So I use this 'technic' from time to time. First you submerge your iPhone (with a proper waterproof case of course) in the sea, and then when you pull it out, you take the photo while water is still on the lens. Sometimes you get nothing at all, or at least not what you are expecting. You have to think about the shoot beforehand, because you have to do it quickly, sometimes even without looking through the viewfinder. And then you get all these blurred and ghostly photos, as though you were living in this watery world full of fog and dreams. No recognizable faces, just the forms of people in the water. And I love it when through all this daze you get a glimpse of a smile, a sense of happiness."
