'I must be a merman, I have no fear of depths and a great fear of shallow living'

De-Tailed....

Not all mermen have long fishy tails. One of the best known mermen is Aquaman, who glides through the ocean with speed and ease.  There are many men without tails who feel most at home, and most free to express themselves, when they're underwater.

I've written previously about the serenity many of us feel when hovering just below the surface.  I think most of us remember being at a crowed, noisy public swimming pool, then swimming to the bottom of the deep, looking up, and feeling a sense of tranquility, looking up at the 'noise' above the surface.  Sadly, most of us can't stay down there that long, and are forced to emerge from our underwater escape.

Over the years, I've loved featuring many artists and models who shot and worked in, and under the water.  Some of the photographers, like Mike Tossy and Gordon Nebeker take the plunge into the deep end with their models, to get just the right shot.  Others, shoot from the beach, or side of the pool.  Regardless of the method, the results are of incredible underwater angels, flying through the water with erotic abandon and freedom.   These sets of images, are some of my favorites.
