It was morning, but doesn't make any difference because the Moon Jellyfish were in a water tank under artificial lighting.Lighting

For me Moon Jellyfish are one of the most interesting alien-looking creatures to photograph.Editing

Count on spending some time photographing this subject matter, from using the right ASA to get sharp images in a low light environment, to avoiding people and light reflections on the fish tank. Finally, the are many translucent Moon Jellyfish moving around the tank and it's a challenge to get the right composition.
