Between sky and sea

A blind shot, trying to guess where the surfer will emerge from the wave, until he appears. There he is, being propelled several meters high, suspended between sky and sea with unmatched lightness. He points to the sky as if he could touch it, a movement that seems to defy gravity, taking surfing to new heights.

Spin control

This story is about people who found themselves in a difficult situation. People who don’t give up and find an opportunity to live their lives to the fullest. The peak of self-sacrifice desire to overcome the tragic situation. In the city of Tyumen (Siberia, Russia) in 2018-2023.

Vertigo

A dive into the sacred waters of Mexico is a dive into Mayan history. At the bottom, silence and darkness reign: it is the entrance to the underworld. It’s time for the freediver to return to the light.
