Graceful Movement

Swimming in another aquarium within the Water Gallery were otherworldly creatures, moon jellies, moving through the water in a way that was hypnotic, and a bit of a challenge to photograph.

    In an aquarium they look beautiful - not in real life! Brrr...

    I can see that this creature would attract your attention. the slow motion keeps you wondering what shape might be next.

    Excellent shots of these jellies. They are amazing creatures. They almost seem to be made of nothing.

    William - I admire the jellyfish for its ability to survive with such an ephemeral body. But I also fear them when swimming in the ocean!

    Hi William, sorry but I had not been checking your blog recently after reading that you would be suspending for awhile. But then checked back today and found I could be taken on a museum tour once again. Welcome back.

    I love seeing fish and other water creatures. I would have been stuck there and not seen one other thing in the museum!
