There’s a very zen-like quality to the photography work of Thomas Fotomas. Using a cleanly blurred effect, the subjects in his work remain in focus, while the backgrounds or foregrounds are smoothly blurred.

This series of surfing photos is particularly striking, capturing the fluid motion of the ocean in a very unique and captivating way. See more of his work on Instagram.
