Remember those screen-savers you used to get that were seen on the television to help soothe and calm people or to to help them nod off to sleep? Well this example of some gorgeous underwater photography could readily accomplish that too. Some of these organisms could also easily inspire the most fantastic designs for the sci-fi genre too as we see a myriad of creatures that exist beneath the waves off the Irish coast. The colours, shapes and movement of these animals is nicely captured without the aid of any commentary, and the clever use of classical themes complements the peaceful and the more menacing, the comical and the threatening and it's quite a fascinating ten minutes to watch.
