Astonishing footage gives a glimpse of a forgotten shipwreck that has been ravaged by time.
Photographer Hugo Healy said he was amazed when he spotted the boat on the shoreline of Lanzarote and had to explore it with his camera equipment.
The 25-year-old, from Hove, East Sussex, captured the scene in drone footage while visiting the Canary Islands in February.
Hugo said the ship, known as The Telamon, sank on October 31, 1981.
The vessel sunk beneath the waves off the coast of the Spanish island, around one mile north east of the port of Arrecife.
On its last trip, The Telamon had a charge of tropical tree trunks on board carrying them from the Ivory Coast to Thessaloniki when it came in distress off the Canary Islands.
Hugo, who is currently living in Dubai, said: "I've always had a fascination with abandoned things so when I saw it wrecked on the shore line.
"I knew I had to fly my drone around it to explore and hopefully create a cinematic video."
Photos show the rusty deck of the abandoned ship where wooden slats and benches still appear to be onboard.
While drone footage shows the shipwreck from above, with views of its colossal chimney which has been left to rot at sea.
The Telamon ship fell into trouble as tropical storm Joseph hit the northern Atlantic Ocean with winds of up to 55 miles per hour.
It was unsalvageable after suffering a leak on the open sea and was towed off by a tuna vessel to its position today.
There it sank to the ground and still occupies the same spot 40 years later.
The remaining wreckage has been further broken up by storms.
It is now a popular spot among divers as it is just a few metres from the shore.
The shores of the Canary Islands are brimming with shipwrecks for divers and snorkelers to explore.
Among the most famous in Tenerife is the El Penon wreck where divers sink to a depth of 32 metres to visit its bridge and engine room.
Others include the Condesito cement ship which sunk in the 70s, the Lolita fishing boat which sank in 2003, and the Meridian WWII wreck which is one of the best preserved sunken ships.
The waters of Gran Canaria include the sunken Alfonso XII, which left Spain for Cuba in 1885 loaded with coins for the military, and the Angela Pando, which sank carrying 12,000 tons of iron in 1986.
Meanwhile Spain's Balearic Islands boast an underwater ship graveyard that lies at a depth of 92ft near the harbour of Palma de Mallorca.
The Palma wrecks dive site includes four of the island's biggest wrecks including two big cargo ships and a sailing yacht.
All four vessels sank in the 1980s and are well preserved.
