A little unexpected Monday Morning Zen with a Portuguese Man-of-War

It’s monday morning and I’m dragging a little. You might be too. But this gorgeous video of Portuguese Man-o-War by Aaron Ansarov (via National Geographic) reminded me of all the amazing things and processes that remain to be studied in the ocean. And that just perked me right up!

Ansarov is a retired U.S. Navy combat photographer, who has been collecting and photographing these creatures when they wash up on the Florida beach where he lives. You can see more of his photographs and some video in this equally stunning article at National Geographic.
