- Clouds reflected in a bay with jellyfish infestation in Åbyfjorden at Rågårdsdal, Lysekil Municipality, Sweden. Most of the jellies are moon jellyfish (Aurelia aurita) and lion's mane jellyfish (Cyanea capillata). When these gatherings occur, the lion's manes go into a bit of a feeding frenzy capturing and eating moon jellies. The bigger lion's manes will capture smaller moon jellies with their tentacles and drag them up into their mouths. Smaller lion's manes will attach themselves to a moon jelly and eat. They seem to prefer eating the moon jellies from the underside. Some of the moon jellies in this photo are tattered and flaccid after having been partially eaten by lion's manes, others have circular marks from the lion's manes feeding.

Oppose Too much noise for me, and I find the reflections more disturbing than adding to the picture.--Peulle (talk) 22:30, 4 August 2020 (UTC)- Oppose the shadow spoils everything. JukoFF (talk) 22:43, 4 August 2020 (UTC)
- Support Good abstract work. I think it succeeds mainly because of its sheer uniqueness, I have never seen anything quite like it. Cmao20 (talk) 22:50, 4 August 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose Disturbing reflections and the composition doesn't work for me -- Basile Morin (talk) 00:40, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose per Basile, but if you crop out most of the cloud reflections, it might work. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 01:36, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
- Support per Cmao—absolutely unique Buidhe (talk) 01:45, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
- Support more for the jellyfishes. Nice shot! - Benh (talk) 06:34, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
- Oppose Per Ikan. I might support without the cloud reflections. Sorry. --StellarHalo (talk) 08:28, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
- Support Another Cocteau Twins cover-style Cart image ... Daniel Case (talk) 02:30, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

- Support maybe Commons is not the right venue for this, but there is some special kind of beauty in this. Somehow reminds me of hydro dipping for some reason. --El Grafo (talk) 15:08, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
