Sometimes called the "lily-trotter" or the "lotusbird". This one is definitely for those among us, who have a foot fetish ;-)
Light box L and White Umbrella R. Slower shutter speed to capture some action in the hair. Edits using Onone Portrait and Effects.
The Arctic comb jelly or sea nut (Mertensia ovum) is commonly found in the surface (top 50 meters) in cold, northern waters. Like other cydippid ctenophores, it has two tentacles fringed with smaller tentacles, which are dappled with colloblasts. Colloblasts are specialized cells that, upon contact with other organisms, act as a glue, allowing the comb jelly to pull the food to its mouth with little resistance. This species has light bioluminescence in blues and greens, but the rainbow effect in this photo is caused by light refracting off of its comb-like rows of cilia, which propel it through the water.

I love my liberal city, 150,000+ women, men and children marched yesterday! We had a wall of people 3.6 miles long marching from Judkins park in the International District to the Space Needle. We were the third largest march in the country only L.A. and D.C. were larger. Thank-you one and all for walking.
Combs were used for multiple purposes. This includes combs being used as status symbols, as decoration for the hair, and as tools.

A closer look at the two PS2's - CCF958 and ENT778. Mulleys depot at Ixworth,Suffolk was indeed a treasure trove in the late'60s!
We enjoyed seeing the Comb-crested Jacana or Lotus birds walking on the Lotus leaves on the South Alligator River, Kakadu National Park.
While on the waters we saw a number of sets of chicks. One male with one chick, another with two and one had three chicks to care for.

Weird wave effect - looks like the waves beachcombing, and in 3D.

(a true diehard electronics geek (or a retired engineer) might think this looks like a graphical representation of the response of a feedforward comb filter.
Not me.
I might have once, but I'm much better now :)
