Jelly

This was taken at the California Academy of Sciences in San Francisco. These are some kind of jelly fish that exist off the California coast. They painted the tank wall blue, making for lovely colors. Flash was not allowed, so I had the ISO cranked way up.

Canon 5d, M3, ISO5000, 58mm, f/5.6, 1/200 sec. Hand held.

Excellent! Tough to catch these guys, for the reasons you mentioned and others.
Really nice perspective and colours, and very sharp.
Nice work!

Very cool, Kathy. All the aquariums I've been to had them in clear tanks of one kind or another. This was a really clever idea on someone's part and you took great advantage of it.
