Jellyfish

Lots of jellyfish on the beach today

varying in sizes from about 3" to 8"
(in foreign that's about 0.076m to 0.20m -thanks to metric conversions.org-
which means absolutely nothing to me..
i'm an old fashioned inches sort of girl, lol)



(about 3") ↑








(the one on the left was about 5") ↑

and the next one nearly 8"

I like the blue and purple in them, never knew they were coloured. They sting when you step on them bare foot, don't they?

At the moment they are here!! there were loads of them down on the beach today.

ann @ studiohyde said...

Yes, they do look pretty, glad they are in the sea most of the time though ;)

ann @ studiohyde said...

They certainly are :-)

ann @ studiohyde said...

Yes, some have red in them and an orangie sort of look. These are non-sting ones - thank goodness!

They are pretty. I didn't know jellyfish were colored like that. Thanks for commenting on my hibiscus.
