    wow...nice!
    :thumbup:


    i never photographed jellyfish before, just had my point and shoot....and sadder still, didn't realize i didn't have it set on the highest pixels, so yea....quality not as *crisp* as i would like, but honestly, i was amazed they came out as good as they did. i definitely will hit up the jellyfish exhibits, camera in hand, next aquarium i manage to visit again. :)

    It's really difficult to take this kind of pictures and especially get a good focus.
    I took many pictures when visiting the Monterey aquarium but only a few were OK.

    it is, it is....
    i think i was very, very lucky.....i posted almost all my shots, not 'perfect' but i am damn pleased compositionally, and overall focus ain't too shabby....so yes, lucky.

    It's amazing how something can be so beautiful and so dangerous all at once...

    They're so odd, Jellyfish. Just so peculiar-looking.
    I love the pics. :mrgreen:
