Dolphins swimming through bioluminescent algae off the coast of Newport, California, filmed by photographer Patrick Coyne who described the experience as ‘one of the most magical nights of my life”.
He also captured some bioluminescent waves crashing onto the beach.

I used every trick I have up my sleeve to pull this off. Image stacking, 360 degree startrail panoramas, and even a macro love scene! Hold on to your seats these fireflies fly by pretty quick!
‘Sup?

Myself and some friends came across hundreds of these bioluminescent jellies on Rossnowlagh beach, Co Donegal at low tide last night [Saturday]. When disturbed, they glow bright blue. From what I can gather, they’re rarely seen here and seemed to be gathered almost entirely in front of a hotel – the only lit up part of the beach. Maybe some of your readers can help shed some light (sorry…) as to why?
UK company Lick Me, I’m Delicious has created an ice cream using calcium activated protein from bio-luminescent jellyfish.
It glows in the dark when you lick it.
Each scoop costs around £140.
Lick that.
