Photographer Seth Casteel is perhaps best known for his series of underwater dog photos. This collection of photographs provides you with never-before-seen view of man's best friend. Seth Casteel's work is a beautiful example of an ordinary subject captured in a very non-ordinary way.

The dogs' expressions are simply incredible, captured as they dive after tennis ball after tennis ball. The blue water, the crisp, clear bubbles, and the dogs' undulating fur makes for an incredible blend of photographic elements and wonderful composition.

Seth Casteel successfully captures the enthusiastic, slightly possessed look that all tennis ball-loving dogs exhibit as they go after each toss with an uninhibited gusto that humans can only dream about. You can almost hear the bubbling, the splash, and the wet dog booty shake --- an incredible feat, as anyone who's ever attempted to photograph an animal can confirm, as they're not always easy subjects!

Seth Casteel specialises in photographs of other animals too, from cats and bears to birds and seals. Despite the soft, fuzzy nature of many of his subjects, his photos are imbued with an edgy artistic flare by way of the composition, lighting and approach --- a feat that's difficult to achieve when you're photographing puppies and kittens!
