Sorry to be bending the theme …. but today there were more marvellous jellies on the beach. I was out with a new little camera, waterproof, shockproof etc, that I bought to take snorkelling in the Great Barrier Reef. We leave in two days, so I had to get the camera working as soon as I could. I had trouble with the white balance, but have that under control now, that is benefit of practising! Anyway I discovered it is quite good at close-ups, so here are the jellies. I have no idea what they are, despite using my favourite search engine. Click on the images to see them more clearly. I did not touch them, several were upside down and one was right way up on the beach.
For more MMM entries, follow Frizz, so wise and relevant this week as ever.

Wow! Wonderfully weird and whacky, Christine and the perfect subjects for your pre-reef practice session! Have a great time 🙂
am hoping underwater photography is easy …. whilst swimming, breathing etc!!!
Ummm :). Yogic concentration perhaps?
now there’s a challenge!
At the same time I’m going eeewww at the bobbly green blob, I’m fascinated… at best it looks like yummy orange jelly, and then again an iridescant life form from outer space… and weird skeletal false teeth… all this from a single marvellous specimen.
Enjoy your trip 🙂
shall do … three nights at a resort! … most of the time self-catering from a little apartment in Cairns where the IYTA Yoga Convention is being held … time to relax and explore too 🙂
intanto apprezzo queste tue foto straordinarie…a me sembra gelatina di frutta o arance candite, tutte cose molto buone, invece le meduse, nella ipotesi migliore sono urticanti, poi ce ne sono di velenose ed anche mortalmente velenose…non qui nel mediterraneo ma in Australia sì, stanne alla larga cara…
non vedo l’ora di guardare le tue foto subacquee
passa una serena giornata nelle tue spiaggia da eden
Meanwhile, I appreciate these extraordinary pictures … I think fruit jelly or candied oranges, all very good, but things the jellyfish, in the best hypothesis are stinging, then there are poisonous and Deathly poisonous … not here in the Mediterranean but in Australia Yes, stanne away Darling …
I can’t wait to watch your underwater photos
passes a serene day in your beach from eden
thank you Ven … they are poisonous! I will not touch! Soon we will be in the north, with many beautiful things to share 🙂

thank you for sharing with us
More Marvellous Mysteries!
thanks to you Frizz, for giving us MMM this week … I love your simple letter challenges because I never know what I will come up with!
Amazing that these are creatures that breathe, eat go where they want to go! Enjoy the snorkelling and good luck with the photos 🙂
thanks Gilly, another adventure!
You will have the most amazing time at the reef, I’m sure. OId slowcoach here will try to have finished my “mmm” by the time you come back 🙂
ha ha! you are doing double time with your alphabet wanderings … your personal one and the one with Frizz … and we all enjoy them greatly!
Thank you 🙂 Just posted something more light hearted. No wonder I can’t do the A-Zs on time.
m is also for magnificent memories
thanks Laura … there will be some after this next trip … we are such lucky people … AND to get to share it with such wonderful blogging friends 😀
we stay-putters enjoy your adventures very much 😉
thanks Laura … I gave up teaching my yoga classes this year just so we were free to travel, and it has worked out very well … next year we have to visit a new baby in Paris so we will be back in your direction then, in fact we will also be in London to visit another special baby who will be two by then … 🙂
Keep that camera with you at all times…… love your photos!
will do!!! well, in truth, the battery life is not good, and you have to charge the battery in the camera, so it does not help to have a spare …. but I will have the superzoom as well, and S will have his little Canon Ixus … so I will grab whichever one I can reach at the time 🙂 Thanks for your lovely comment ….
Wow, it is beautiful! great photos, thanks! I usually spend all my time at aquariums staring at all the beautiful jelly fish….they are gorgeous creatures.
so happy to show you Janaline!
What fascinating creatures these are, Christine. I’ll keep my distance. 🙂
Would have had a hard time guessing what those gelatinous globs were if you had not explained – just another reminder of the unique and marvelous as you so well stated. shanti….
nature will always surprise!
Thankfully!
we love it ❤
Oh wow, these photographs are captivating. Gorgeous close-ups.
thank you Myra! we do see some unusual things here 🙂
