Monterey Bay Aquarium

Had a wonderful trip the the Monterey Bay Aquarium. There are some wonderful opportunities, but I brought one lens and two kids. These are some sea nettles. Shot with a 5D and a 24-105 L f4 ISO 1600 f4.5 1/80 sec, pushed 2/3 stop.




These are moon jellies. Pushing it with this shot. ISO 3200 f4 1/8 sec, pushed 1 1/3 stops.









I had reached the Deep Reef display and put the camera away because it was just too dark - think theater dark. Had one of those Real Men of Genius shots. ISO 3200 f4 1/4 sec pushed 1 1/3 stops. Man those cell phone cameras must have really come a long way!

The jellyfish exhibits are my favorite attractions at the Monterey Bay Aquarium.

I was there last year, when I got this picture:

I dont think I posted it here (actually, I don't remember if I did or not).

Nice shots, Tom. The jellyfish look like something out of a science fiction novel.
