Something about jellyfish that I enjoy watching -- from the other side of a wall of glass. I feel the same way about sharks. At the Henry Doorly Zoo in Omaha.

Jellyfish have that rhythmic movement that just seems so restful. I agree 100% about the looking and no touching business. Nice image, Jeff!

There is something ethereal and other worldly about jellyfish. Your photo captures that well.

Gratitude to the Ancient Instructors "What they undertook came to pass. All things hang like a drop of dew upon a blade of grass." W.B. Yeats
So long as there is glass between me and a jellyfish I can appreciate their beauty - and this is a real beauty

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
I know how you feel, Jeff. Scuba diving in Tokyo bay, I found myself in a batch of them in the dark water. Jellyfish toxin does not wash out of the human system; every sting adds toxin to any past amount. The physiology of some people can stand high amounts while others may react violently upon the first sting. Luckily for me my wetsuit, however thin a membrane, was enough to give me the confidence to swim through them. These jellies at the HDZ are gorgeous critters, and you have captured both their gelatinous nature as well as the slim oral arms perfectly. Seeing them washed up on shore, however, shows just how ugly they can appear to a novice ocean beach walker.
