There were hundreds of beautiful lion's mane jellyfish swimming all around the ship yesterday. They're hard to take a good picture of tho.

@neauoire I had that same issue recently. I was not however motivated to jump in to get a better shot.

@avi eeek! no, I wouldn't want to extend more than a finger in the water to hold a camera to them.

@floatvoid we've seen moon jellyfish blooms in the spring before, but these are bright red and pretty large, that picture is of just a little baby. Some large ones were 4 feet in diameter, they don't come to the surface much tho, they stay deep enough that they only look like a yellowish haze

@neauoire part of the beauty is in the motion, which makes it very hard to capture in a still photo I think. Kind of the same problem with taking photos of smoke, or milk swirling in coffee or tea.
