Jellys!

If you're like me, you think that jelly fish are pretty freakin' cool. In fact, they are extremely gorgeous. If you don't believe me, do a Google image search - you'll be delightfully amazed. Anyway, I stumbled across these pictures of this lady swimming in the Black Sea surrounded by hundreds of jellys and I thought I'd share. Apparently, they aren't the "stinging kind" - but I still don't know that I would jump in for a brisk swim. It just seems like it might be like swimming with a bunch of living boogers. There are more pictures after the jump - you should check 'em out!


PS - You should also check out this really amazing artist, Satava. He has some beautiful glass art of jellyfish that (when you see them in person) may make your eyes a little moist.

They're cool to look at...but having been stung by one and their cousin the Portuguese Man of War, part of me involuntarily shivered when I saw someone out there swimming with them.

It's totally my issue....
