Paco, Akira and Thomas - many thanks for the kind comments and sharing your impressions!

I had been on a few walks by the shore during that day and spotted several small jellyfish. In the evening I got the chance to take this shot of a larger one from a bridge - I think my mind had circled around such an opportunity most of the day :-) Handheld, 55mm (APS-C) and 1/20 sec. provided a bit of movement in the image.

Lars, thanks for the details.  I didn't realize that it was a jellyfish!

 ;D .. no, it's definitely not obvious - however, I hoped my title provided a small hint to what lurked below the reflections in the water. This species is a well known visitor along danish shores with its tentacles that gives a nasty burning sting.

Many thanks Jakov! I like your interpretation - when I processed it and saw the pond skater insect among the "stars" the scene suddenly gave me flashbacks to the space invaders computer game I played many years ago :)

Nice. I like the black band at the top to give some balance to the image.

No one specified what *state* the water had to be in.
