Meditations on the River Thames by Micah Moore
"One of the main reasons I love mudlarking, is the meditative calm that comes over me while searching on the foreshore. Time seems to stop and my concerns of the day drift away like the outgoing tide. I wanted to recreate that almost trance-like state through immersive video and
