A washed up jellyfish. I liked the shot because of the texture and colour.

Like the pattern on the sand and how the jellyfish seems to be being absorbed into it...

Way cool photo!!! Love the colors...I have never seen a jelly fish like that before!

@Jen: I don't know the type of jellyfish, but they are common all along our Atlantic coast. This one was spotted amongst several hundred that were washed up on a beach in North west scotland

Bizarre!! I've never seen a jellyfish like this before either... mind you, I am a land lubber. At first, I thought it was a very big sand dollar. Love the shot Richard... the textures are incredible.

Good capture! Nice textures and colours. I don't like Jellyfish though, scared of their sting.

@Stunner: These ones don't sting people, but I have seen some types that do, and they give me the creeps, especially when your swimming in the sea, and find yourself amongst a swarm of them !!
