National Geographic photographer Victor Lyagushkin
accompanied a team of divers to explore
the underwater cave network of the Blue Lake,
near the Caucasus Mountains in Russia.

At 770 feet long, 400 meters wide and 800-feet-deep,
the Blue Lake is currently considered to be
the deepest type of lake in the world, called a Karsk lake.
Karsk lakes are usually formed from limestone rock
which is eroded by water from below.

"Russian divers attempted to locate the cave system
and source of the spring leading into one of
the deepest underwater cave systems in the world,"
said Victor. "Such complicated and deep
dives need a big team of
well-educated and experienced divers who work
together as a team."

"The problem is that this unique natural object was not
explored at all - we know almost nothing about it.
The aim of the project was to make scientists
pay attention to this lake and to make them start
researching it.
We wanted people to understand that this is not a puddle,
but an unknown and wonderful world under the water.
