There’s a lot of shoreline in the world, but you rarely see it from the water.

Asako Narahashi just posted a set of pictures called “Half Awake and Half Asleep in the Water” showing some of the better oceanfront sites in the world fro mthe perspective of a frantic doggy-paddler. As a result, the lens is half in the water for many of the shots, adding a scrappy edge to the usual phototourism.

And like any good draftsman, he knows a good sky when he sees it.
