This picture, taken by photographer Benjamin Von Wong, features a beached mermaid laying on top of 10,000 recycled plastic bottles.
By using the recycled plastic bottles as a stand-in for the ocean, Von Wong hopes the images start a conversation on how plastic bottles are polluting our oceans.
In addition to having a camera crew help him, Von Wong brought in a team of volunteers, a professional makeup artist, and an airbrusher.
"Hopefully people feel empowered by this series," Von Wong told BuzzFeed.
Von Wong urges people to pledge to reuse the plastic bottles they already have, or to stop using plastic water bottles entirely and opt for reusable bottles.
