Last weekend we had a furiously busy few days. We were rushed off our feet going Christmas shopping and all kinds of festive prep. It was busy and stressful, as the run up to Christmas so often is.
Whilst my husband did battle with a shopping centre, I took the small boy to the SEA LIFE Centre for an hour. We love it there, it’s usually a lot of fun and an interesting way to spend an afternoon exploring under the sea. But this time we were the first through the door and as we skipped the initial photograph and film, we were a good few minutes in front of everyone else. It was fantastic.
After the chaos and bright lights of the last few weeks, we took our stress levels down a notch or two. Watching the fish swimming in the tanks and the calm undersea lighting worked wonders on our fraught moods.
I have a real thing for jellyfish. I’m terrified of them in the sea, but in the tanks of the SEA LIFE Centre they are shown up as the real things of beauty that they are. I love taking photographs of them and trying to capture some of their alien beauty. Here’s my favourite from our visit. I hope you like it too.
Wow how did you get such a great shot through a tank? I love jellyfish but can never get a good shot when we visit the aquarium! Love this! #mysundayphoto
Wow that is so clear and detailed, love it.
Have a very Merry Christmas.
Thank you for linking up and supporting My Sunday Photo this year.
That is an amazing photo, they are such unusual creatures, though like you I’m not a fan of coming across them on the beach.
That’s an amazing shot. I’m like you, not keen in the sea, but seeing them backlit in tanks, they are beautiful. Merry Christmas
Love this! The blue is so vivid. Love a jellyfish – they’re so weird and so amazing. #MySundayPhoto
