6 - Nice perspective/angle. Like the detail in the 'oral arms'. Perhaps a variation in the colors/tones/curves to give this a boost color-wise may have given this a little extra, although very difficult to adjust due to resulting contrast issues. Also, depending what you had to work with, a variation in composition, or else getting the whole jellyfish in focus, with this centered composition, may have also made this even better in my opinion. There are a few minor 'specks' here and there that, with advanced editing, perhaps could have been cloned out, but fairly minor. Up to 6 from 5.

without the 2 white specs, this would've been a perfect photograph. Even still it's very close.

An amazing animal - looks so lovely with all those tentacles. Very nice capture contrasting nicely with the deep blue.
