    For a stunning series entitled Blackwater, Hawaii-based diver and photographer Joshua Lambus takes beautiful photos of luminous aquatic creatures against a perfectly black background that enables us to better appreciate just how incredibly awesome they are.

    Lambus says, “Now being underwater I’m inundated with stories, struggles, triumphs. Seeing our fragile ecosystem inch ever closer to the verge of destruction pushes me to continue my work, not only for artistic value, but for a far greater purpose. I hope to tell a story and ask for help for those without a voice.”

    Here’s hoping we’ll see some of these enchanting cephalopods in our dreams tonight. 

    Visit My Modern Metropolis to view more of Joshua Lambus’ astonishing Blackwater series and then head over to his own website to check out more of his photographic work.

Here’s some additional photos. Fun fact: this bat is so different from others that a new genus was created! It’s like a hot fudge sundae bat.

    Using salvaged materials Boston based artist collective !ND!V!DUALS  create sculptural installations occupied by large-scale or life-size characters and creatures that are influenced by 1990′s cartoons, animations, and film set designs. Creatures and anthropomorphic beasts have been the focus of work as well as an interest in creating environments and transformative art experiences. The narratives are fairly open, but encourage viewers to be transported into the world of their humorous and playful sculptures

    Genus Lybia

    (Boxer Crabs)

    also known as pom-pom crabs, Boxer Crabs are a genus of small crabs in the family Xanthidae (mud crabs). the name pom-pom/or boxer comes from the mutualism that they hold with sea anemones, in which they hold the cnidarian in their claws and use them for defense, and in turn the sea anemone gets more food by moving around.

About me

I am A. Darkly and I am a plush artist, a writer, a photographer, a retired cosplayer, an artist, and a geek. I'm roughly the age of TWO average Tumblrites combined but everyone thinks I look 16. :\

I'm new to actually posting on Tumblr and still getting the hang of it. I'll mostly be posting my artwork/plush, but will pass along cool stuff too! I'm almost 100% SFW.
Things I like a lot: crafts/graphic design/SherlockSHERLOCKSherlock/Adventure Time/Supernatural/Doctor Who/White Collar/Guillermo del Toro/comics/Japanese culture
