Mystic Blue
--------------------------------

Jellyfish, you drift with the tides and winds,
trying to stay current with the currents. You, friend,
are as weak as water, not to mention transparent.
Hang there bobbing on the surface or, better yet,
lay immobile and dying in the sand where I can't get to you.
The tide is rising, and you must wonder
Will it pull you back out to sea,
or push you further up the shore?

-------------------------------------------
Photo was taken in the Zoo of Rotterdam. Not always easy to photograph a drifting jelly fish! Most of the time it's dark and the water moves him round in his ... ehm... environment...
I hope you like what I did with this beautiful animal.
Fractalius was used to get a more mysterious look.

Thanks for watching!
Have a nice day

Alex

Hee, this one I overlooked. What a great photo of this jelly fish!!!
Is the bleu colour for real??
Wow, a good shot!

Een bos bloemen en het is een mooie vaas.(:
Maar even serieus
Het is een aparte foto
expressief. Hij lijkt wel electrisch geladen.

Hi Alex,

The jellyfish gives light! Very nice contrast like this. Well captured.

TFS Greetings Simone

Hallo Alex.
Ik zie dat je niet 'dagelijks' een fotootje plakt, haha
Maar dit is een hele mooie, en zekerniet eentje die je effe schiet.
De transparantie is prachtig zichtbaar.
Good job.!
Groeten van Jan
