And I thought the georgia aquarium was fascinating!!
Incredible shot you have there!

I just shared the video with friends and family. Quite remarkable.
It reminds me that these exhibits are best enjoyed over long time scales, and thus ideally while lying on a mattress wide angle vs. standing close.
P.S. view from the inside looking out... ;-)
