Jellyfish 2
This is a shot of a jellyfish from the Monterey Bay Aquarium in California which I took the same day as this other shot. I'm not sure which one I like better but I think this one stands out because of the dramatic lighting and the odd golden glow. It almost looks like there's a spotlight on this specific jellyfish. Also the fact that the jellyfish is not in sharp focus makes it look like ink that's dispersing in the water.[click photo to enlarge]

There's something very calm and beautiful about them. Nice capture.
I agree what you told about the focus, nice work.
oh my goodness what a KIFF shot!
This one is cool- it looks like its floating around in some far off galaxy.
Thanks for all the comments. I think the dramatic lighitng in this one and the background set it apart from the other one.
Just goes to show that a sharp photo is not always the best.
Really like the colors in this picture.:)
jellyfish scare the crap out of me.
Thanks for the comments.
Brocco- I guess you're lucky there aren't too many jellyfish in the midwest.
Quite eerie and... scary. Wouldn't like to meet it while swimming in the sea!
Thanks for the comments. I was definetely happy to see this one through glass. I still have one more photo of a jellyfish I saw in the wild (shallow water). I'll try to post that sometime this week.
Thanks Mari.
