It was taken at Monterey Bay Aquarium this summer. It's actually taken just as I saw them in the tank.

Stopped by to say congratulations on having your shot be featured on the Flickr home page, along with one of mine, and one from /roamer and /tangentialism.

did you use a red filter when you took this photo? the colours are so vivid. me like :-)

Pixie Dust says:

I have to admit when I glanced at the front page I though they had chosen my Monterey jellyfish photo, but of course the jellies are in a slightly different configuration.

To whoever asked if filters were used, to get these colors on my photo all I would have had to do was click the "enhance" button in my photo editing program, but I liked my blue with a bit more gradation.

If you ever get a chance to go to the Aquarium, imagine a giant wall of these behind glass. And so much more. A world class destination!
