UPY British Waters Compact - Highly Commended
'Early morning jellyfish'
Martin Stevens
Jellyfish season has to be my favourite time of year, and there are few UK jellyfish as impressive and beautiful as a fully grown compass. These mysterious animals appear for a few summer months, and in a good year (perhaps not for swimmers!) some really big ones visit, trailing their long tentacles behind. I'd been waiting for that time and set out early one morning as the sun was rising to capture some shots, and was soon met with the first giants of the year. The low morning sun rays were piercing the water allowing me to capture one of these magnificent creatures moving towards the light.
Judge's comment: Super nice atmosphere and sun ray beams right towards the jellyfish. I really like the minimalistic composition along with the fantastic colors in this great image. - Tobias Friedrich
