Surreal photorealistic artwork of joyfully floating people

About this image

This surreal photorealistic digital artwork blends a sunlit historic downtown city street lined with vintage stone buildings with an unexpected underwater ocean that replaces the sky above the rooftops. Carefree people in swimwear and casual clothing float playfully above the empty street, while boaters sit on the ocean surface, and scuba divers, tropical fish, and coral reef fill the glowing blue underwater expanse. Warm golden hour lighting lends a whimsical, dreamlike mood to the imaginative hybrid scene merging urban life and summer ocean fantasy.
