Butterflies are Dying TodayI think
the butterflies are dying today
They scratch at my windows
with their tissue paper wings
Screaming into my dreams
Today is the day, I think they say
But in the morning the glass is silent
And all I see left are
fragments of kaleidoscopes
no hopes
Only powder stains
remain.

Takin on the Jelliesby *mree

Photography / Animals, Plants & Nature / Aquatic Life

Aquarium of the Pacific down in Long Beach, CA had a special photography night open to a handful of photography enthusiasts. It was my first try at taking aquarium photos, and it was full of challenges--glass distortions, low light, blurring and chromatic aberrations at every stop! This is one of the few that turned out okay, since the jellyfish displays had the best lighting.

I want a reading lamp that looks like that... all creepy-dangly...

I always thought that jellyfish looked like plants.

Jellyfish are honestly one of the few animals I can say I hate, but this is an AMAZING shot! Good work, Marie! As always!

Very nice. I wish that I could have made it to that event. The Aquarium of the Pacific is one of my favorite places to visit.

Wow, this is really cool! I wouldn't have gussed this was from an aquarium if you hadn't mentioned it. I love the focus and the bright contrasting colours! They look so real - like I could touch one - it's really nice!
