A sinkhole with a cloud of hydrogen sulphide and a mound of debris poking through the top created the impression of a lake and island both under the water. VARIOUS LOCATIONS: In one image, freedivers at Deep Week Freediving Festival in the Philippines got their groove on below the surface as a huge crowd of freedivers congregated to dance. In another, a diver delved into a vast collection of 600,000 sting-free jellyfish in Jellyfish Lake, Palau. Others show swimmers face-to-face with giants as they swim with sperm whales in the Indian Ocean, an amputee surfer up close with a tiger shark for the first time since one had bitten away his right leg, and a lake - including it?s own island - within an ocean in Tulum, Mexico. The first underwater photo ever was taken by Englishman William Thompson in 1856, in Weymouth Bay, Dorset. Since then, with advances in underwater technology, it?s become a much simpler process to photograph the world beneath the surface. The first amphibious camera was released in 1963 and the popularity of film underwater cameras sent the popularity of underwater photography soaring. Russian photographer Mike Korostolev (38) from Moscow captured the images of himself and a friend freediving with Sperm whales.
