These stunning jellyfish shots come to you from the deep waters of the White sea in Russia. Photos were taken a while ago by a marine biologist and a professional underwater photographer Alexander Semenov and his team of scientific divers, who are now forced to raise funds to be able to continue their research and work. The White Sea Biological Station of Lomonosov’s Moscow State University is located at the boarder of the Arctic circle, and besides the team working there, welcomes students, PhD’s, scientists and volunteers from all around the world. The station was founded in 1938 and was mostly built by enthusiasts who came here because of the amazing atmosphere that had being developed over many years at the station.

Some time ago, Alexander launched a fundraiser on IndieGogo, where he hoped to achieve his dream of building a suitable and comfortable diving shed for all the diving and science enthusiasts in Russia. Unfortunately, they received only $980 of the $18,000 goal. By sharing these amazing jellyfish photos by Alexander Semenov, we hope to spread the word and help him succeed next time.
“This is an unusual and unique mix of students energy, serious science and the harsh northern nature,” says Alexander.
