Taking things at face value is easy in life, but one lesson you’ll learn time and again is this: nothing is ever what it seems. People lie, the world is a mystery and there are so many things about our universe that we have yet to discover. That’s why, when photographerMike Deere discovered these hidden, underground wonders throughout Britain, it was so fascinating.
Deep below the earth are hidden tunnels and treasures all throughout Britain.

I wish I could find the places he finds.

It’s hard to believe, with a world so full of people, there are still places that are forgotten or undiscovered. To see more of Mike’s projects, visit his online portfolio. If you liked these photos, his series called Sense of Space has a similar feel. You should discover it.
