Photos from Gulf of Finland

Hi,

I put here some photos from my home-sea. We have quite dirty water.

There is some jellyfishes

and some bent needle

As jellyfish are part of the plankton, this sort of backscatter in turbid waters does not worry me too much (but I'm probably in the minority as the 'purists' will no doubt disagree!). I like your 'bent needle' (which in the UK we call broad-nosed pipefish) which look as though they may be shot in fairly shallow water?

Hi!

Gulf of Finland - my home pond aswell.

Really hard to get those jellys into focus in that turbid water.

Cheers
