I encountered moon jellies for the first time on a recent dive. I spent the end of the dive trying to get a decent photograph of them pointing the camera up towards the sun. Unfortunately, while focusing all my attention on my camera I managed to get a jellyfish across my face. Ouch!

Now I really have respect for pictures like that.
