The only other thing on the beach today...

...besides me! The clouds are finally clearing but the wind is blowing madly! Two bluebottle jellyfish (or called Portuguese man o' war everywhere else) Top right I think is a Jelly Blubber, and I'm not sure of the bottom left one :)

Great detail and texture contrasts

[Sally Lees]

Lovely detail, esp. the bluebottles against the sand. Perhaps the mystery one is a moon jellyfish. Several years ago a beach where I sometimes walk had hundreds of them washed up - a very strange sight.

[Leanne M Williams]

Great photos :)

[Paula W]

What an interesting selection, I've heard lots about Portuguese man o'war jellyfish but never seen one (which is fine by me!!)

[Peter Grave]

Nice collage Denise.I don,t like any of them especialy those blue bottles!!!

[sally agnew]

Great collection of these squishy sea critters Denise :)

[Denise Wood]

@essafel Thanks Sally. I read about the moon jellyfish and thought maybe...but wasn't sure!

[Francoise]

Fascinating to look at. wouldn't they all be happier back in the water? Or are they ok washed up on the beach too.

[Kat]

Very cool captures. Always so tempting to poke squidgy things, but best not to with them i guess. Great collage. :)

[June]

Never seen the blue ones before. I bet it was nice to have the beach to yourself ... It's a shame that it only happens when the weather isn't so good.

[Denise (lyndemc)]

You had some interesting and colorful company on the beach.

[Jane Anderson]

Hard to believe something so pretty could do any harm.

[Kerry McCarthy]

Nice collection of shots. Interesting creatures.

[Mannie]

At first I thought it was ice sculptures. Just don't step on them, Denise! What crazy creatures.

[gloria jones]

Neat collage

[Milanie]

These findings really made a super collage when put together. The colors are great. Really like this.

[Lady Magpie (Heather)]

Interesting collage, nice captures.

[Pyrrhula]

A great collage of beautiful pic.`s of this nice treasures of the beach

[Sue Cooper]

Amazing photos Denise. I've never seen Portuguese men o'war and I didn't know they were also called bluebottle jelly fish. 365 is very educational. Thank you.

[Joyce]

Great collage Denise. Love the colour and textures.

[Mark Prince]

Great collage, jellyfish don't feature on here very often, nice change.

[Sheralee S]

I haven't seen a blue bottle before, I can see why they get that name. Great collage.

[Poppo Livy]

Bloody things. I hate them. Nice collage Denise

[👑 AnaZad]

Fantastic images for a great collage. Great finds on the beach :)

[Leah]

Nicely captured jelly fish!!! Lovely collage!!!

[Denise Wood]

@francoise Pretty sure they were dead, but wasn't going to touch them! Don't think they can survive out of water for long.
@darthkitty No poking Kat. Think they might spurt out :)
@junep So true June - only by myself when it's cold :)
@susiemc I agree Sue - we learn so much on this site! Only Australians call them blue bottles :)
@flyrobin @leanne333 @paulaw @peterlgrave @hermann @lyndemc @cejaanderson @mccarth1 @milaniet @ladymagpie @pyrrhula @thistle @markp @bella_ss @terryliv @anazad511 @lealady Thanks all so much for great comments on this collage. Everyone's comments are delightful to read and I got a laugh from those who don't like them :)

[Margaret Obey]

Fabulous collage

[Gena Pegg]

Lovely collage of colors and textures.

[Kathie]

Great collage. Would these be a problem if you stepped on them in bare feet? Ouch

[Vicki Dixon]

very awesome! I have never seen blue ones before
