Some climate change models indicate that many of the planet's coastal regions will be underwater in the next 50 to 100 years. Deciding to put a positive spin on this rather dreary prediction, media production company Squint/Opera used a combination of photography and digital modeling and manipulation to create an altogether surprising vision of the future.
The company's images, which were presented as part of London Festival of Architecture 2008, show Londoners fishing from parking structures, playing near submerged sidewalks, and completing high dives from St. Paul's Cathedral. What's your take on these images?

scary, but beatifully done.
1Creepy.
2The pictures are beautiful; almost magical looking. I love the first one and the last two. Hopefully, people understand that the goal is to keep London & England the way that is now and not submerged under water..This is a good way to gain more awareness of global warming..
3i agree with all three of you. yes these images are a bit creepy but they are beautifully done and they were created to shed more and more light and awareness on the urgency of the matter.
4Erie, but beautiful all the same.
