jellyfish – In Photos dot Org

Luminescence in Azure

When you walk into the Oceanogràfic de València in (guess where) Valencia, you’ll spot large glowing tanks of water. They’re underground, presumably to help keep them cool in the hot Spanish climate and unfortunately, most people just walked straight past them.

Now, I’m not a huge fan of jellyfish, but they’re a beautiful animal to watch from a safe, non-touching, distance. So, of course, I took a bunch of photos of them. 🙂

Floating Beauty

A jellyfish in a vibrant blue aquatic environment. The jellyfish has a translucent, umbrella-shaped bell with a greenish-yellow rim. Its tentacles and oral arms appear to be soft and frilly, with shades of white and pink. The background is a deep blue, enhancing the jellyfish's colors and details.

The Jellyfish at Blarney Castle

Over the next few days in Blarney Castle there’s a new pop-up garden to visit inside the walls of the building. In it, you’ll find an aquarium that is home to a group of moon jellyfish surrounded by specially selected plants and beautiful art work. The Irish Examiner has published an article on it this morning with lots more detail.
