These unique bell-shaped stalactites hidden deep in the depths of the ocean will take your breath away.

The incredible phenomenon lurking under the water in Yucatan, Mexico, was caught on camera by underwater photographer Rino Sgorbani.

Hidden in a deep limestone sinkhole - known as a cenote - is a collection of stalactites that look like beautiful bells.

"I was curious to go and photograph these strange forms of stalactites," said Mr Sgorbani.

"They are unique - I immersed myself many times to get these beautiful pictures."
