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.

  15. 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!

  17. 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.
