Once there, I immediately looked at everything as art in my lens. It was all about composition, color, reflections, and sometimes, the inhabitants in the tanks.
A fun excursion, and another way to see through zen eyes.
Enjoy your day, Margie
It is amazing to think of the variety of creatures that do live in the sea. Thankfully, between photography, and glass aquariums, many of us will get to see sights that we would otherwise be denied. Thanks for sharing these photographs, Margie. I think of these, my favorite is the one with the clown fish (makes me think of Nemo) with the purple coral.
It is something isn’t it Marcy? Finding Nemo was such a cute movie!
It was. They say it was a very intricate movie to make as well. There is more to computer animation than meets the eye, from what I understand.
That wouldn’t surprise me one bit Marcy. I can’t imagine what goes to it.
Lovely aquatic art and colors!
Thank you!
Wow. This is gorgeous photography. Thanks for sharing with us.
Thanks Cecelia!!

We’ve been there Margie! On our honeymoon!! Love the lobster and the crab. And no, not because they are shhhhh, edible. With buttah. Enjoy your Monday! We are suppose to be 92 today, 91 yesterday. Redunkulous.
You make me smile Pix, I swear! And, I love that you speak your own language. Me too, it’s called Margieze, LOL! I might have to steal redunkulous, LOL!
It’s ok Margie, I kinda stole it and reworked it. Off to Under the Oaks! LaDeeDah!! Enjoy your evening……..
The pink coral!
The pink coral!
I know, I know!
Fabulous thanks for sharing, I love aquariums!
You bet Gilly. Plenty to see at Shedd, that’s for sure!
It’s a crazy world down there!! (too)
Mysterious.
impressive aquarium …and excellent images Margie!
Thanks Christine! Enjoy the day. I’m headed to bed!
The vivid colors blending and complimenting the creatures and their environment is truly some of the most beautiful art to see. Thanks for sharing your buffet of eye-candies.
Thanks lovey! Isn’t this late for you? Don’t you usually visit in the morning? I know you talked about playing catch up, but…sweet dreams!
It’s been a busy weekend and I thought if I get caught up with my visits and comments now, I won’t feel as rushed or overwhelmed and can blog more relaxed. You know how it is?
Sweet dreams to you too.
I totally understand E.C. You notice I’m still up, LOL!
EC I just had to stickmy nose in here and say that I just soooo understand what you are saying about commenting and blogging.
Oh I know. If you miss one day with blogs you follow, they stack up like planes on the runway at JFK & Laguardia!
My poor brain cells can’t all fire up right when I get all befuddled over not getting comments done in an orderly fashion. Leaves me with a cranky. So CH says to me every ding dang day, “Have you done comments yet?”, he does not like to suffer my cranky over blogging. Stack up like planes! Ha! Cracking up here.
45 minutes till wine time!
I’m ahead of you Pix. Sipping as I type…well not while I type, but you know what I mean, LOL! Cheers, under the oaks!
Margie you & Pix crack me up. lol Thanks to both of you for a good healthy chuckle. (((hugs)))
Oh good E.C., love to make you laugh! We ARE a pretty good team. Maybe we should take our act on the road!!
Cool! That might just work.
Want to go on the road with us? Haven’t told Pix this idea yet, but…
lol Thanks for the offer, but I can’t, it’s almost gardening season my most favorite time of the year
Party pooper! You’ll be soooorrry!
Yep, I’ll probably be like the 5th Beatle lol
You two go out there and make me proud.
Haha, okay, we will!
Margie I love being out on the road in my vehicle, wind blowing thru my inch and a half hair, radio turned up, sun roof open. I could drive and you could snap pictures!
Road trip!!
