Blue Monday #7: Moon Jellies
I don't think Moon Jellyfish are actually this color. I suspect they have very little pigmentation of their own (any marine biologists want to weigh in here?), but the NC Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores elected to light the tank this way and it really does give a soothing feel to the display. The one flash lit shot I got of this tank I didn't like at all, so I opted for the ambient light even though it forced me to shoot a shutter speed so slow that blurring was inevitable. For some reason I couldn't get these guys to hold still. Go figure.

These are great pictures..I love the shades of blue. Happy Blue Monday..
You got some really cool pictures anyway, even if the darn jellyfish wouldn't stay still. I love the shade of blue you were able to get for these pictures.
Fine blue jelly dancers !
This blue colour gives a very special effect, nice!
That shade of intense blue shows off the jellyfish, while at the same time appears to be the blue sea. Great photos. Happy Blue Monday!
WOW...these are just beautiful...that color of blue is stunning.
love the transparent blue!
maybe you couldn't hold them still because they were alive?
Very kewl! I love how the blues turned out.
Bluest blue really and very beautiful too !
Greetings from Finland to you!
Very cool pictures! I think they would look great as a desktop background.
I don't think that I have ever seen any jelly fish as beautiful as these. The color effect makes them unique. Happy Blue Monday!
