A freediver dives into a school of jackfish. "I always wanted to create an image of a human 'coexisting' with the underwater world," says photographer Khaichuin Sim. "My wife is a skilled freediver, so on this shoot I asked her to dive towards the middle of this school until I got this beautiful image of her surrounded with storm of jackfish."
