"This juvenile fish has a very beautiful breast fin"
Blackwater: The marine life photography of Kei Nomiyama, Japan - Nov 2015
FULL COPY: http://www.rexfeatures.com/nanolink/rmbq
They look like creatures from another planet, but these weird specimens are all marine life captured by talented underwater photographer Kei Nomiyama.
In his photo series Blackwater, the 36-year-old presents the amazing creatures discovered in the sea at night.
His work includes the quirky sight of a 'jellyfish rider', a lobster larvae hitching a ride on a hapless jellyfish, and the Phronima Sedentaria, a species of amphipod crustacean, that Kei says reminds him of the sci-fi film 'Aliens'.
Kei explains: "I live in Matsuyama city at Shikoku island, smallest of the four main islands in Japan. I mainly take these photos at Omi-island in Yamaguchi-prefecture. The Omi-island is located in the south of the main island of Japan and facing the Sea of Japan.

Talk about going ape, this young langur monkey looked as if it had won the banana lottery.
Hands aloft, the cheeky monkey was captured as it hopped up and down while its non-plussed mother picked delicious seeds from cotton.
Wildlife photographer and Exodus guide Paul Goldstein came across the excitable youngster while searching for tigers in central India's Tadoba National Park last month.
Wimbledon-based Paul explains: "When tigers are sleeping or out of sight the langur monkey is a fine target for any camera. Here a youngster practices a celebration routine. It almost appears as though its mother is controlling it by a cotton-clad remote control!"

He explains: "I love the polar bears of the North but there is something magical about the penguins down South that entrance me. Yes it can be a mission to get there but it is palpably worth it.

Anyone who has been to Alaska will testify to its untamed beauty. Photographer Tim Plowden's visit to the Tongass National Forest in Southeast Alaska and its annual salmon migration struck him with "revelatory awe". He comments: "Witnessing thousands of Pacific pink salmon was a spell-binding spectacle of sight, smell and sound. Their story enthralled me - a final selfless journey". According to Tim his first sighting of the salmon migration was shared with a bearded old man. Possibly intrigued by his fascination, as Tim watched the aquatic scene unfold before him the old man shared insights from his long years as a local fishing guide into the salmon's odyssey. Tim says: "It only intrigued me further and sealed my resolution to pay tribute to this remarkable fish on its last journey back to its natal rivers. Their final resting place".

Epic quest to find the world's forgotten frogs
Epic quest to find the world's forgotten frogs
Four years ago, conservationist and photographer Robin Moore embarked on the largest global quest for species lost to science. Accompanied by over 120 scientists in 21 countries, he went in search of frogs and salamanders last seen between 15 and 160 years ago.
The four-year quest has produced some surprising rediscoveries, including the Ventriloqual Frog from Haiti, capable of throwing its voice, and the Borneo Rainbow Toad, unseen in 87 years, and remarkable new species such as the "Monty Burns Toad" from Colombia which bears a striking similarity with the nefarious villain from the Simpsons.
Moore's fascinating new book, In Search of Lost Frogs, tells the story of the quest - its highs and lows, failures and discoveries, and the campaign's ongoing work - in a 70,000 work narrative wrapped around over 400 striking photographs.
As we lament the rampant loss of species in the midst of the sixth mass extinction - with amphibians at the forefront as the most threatened vertebrate group - Moore believes that hope is as important as despair in motivating people to care. "As conservationists we often get so caught up in communicating what it is that we are losing that we forget to instill a sense of hope," Moore says. "We need to revel in the weird and the wonderful, the maligned and the forgotten, for our world is a richer more wondrous place for them. Stories and images of discovery and rediscovery can help us to reconnect with our inner explorer - they can make us feel part of a bigger, wilder world. Rekindling a connection with the world beyond our concrete boxes is the key to caring about the way we are treating our natural world."
Photo shows: Juvenile Macaya Breast-spot Frog, Eleutherodactylus thorectes, a critically endangered species in the Massif de la Hotte. One of the smallest frogs in the world, it was rediscovered in 2010 after close to two decades.

They could be mistaken for stills from a Star Wars movie or a glimpse of a prehistoric past - but these amazing images capture the stunning survival instinct of the musk ox.
Wildlife photographer Roy Mangersnes captured these pictures showing the resilient mammals withstanding harsh Norwegian conditions.
Roy documented the hardy creatures as they hunkered down in gale force winds, blizzard conditions and temperatures reaching minus 25 degrees.
He spent six arduous days in the field at Dovrefjell National Park to get shots he felt represented the ancient species.
Highlights include a female ox appearing to be completely snowed in, while her calf and another youngster find shelter behind her, and a large bull ox shaking snow of its large body.
Roy shot the images for a nature film documentary and has only now been allowed to release them.

Tourist group observes juvenile king penguins
Georgia On My Mind: The Wildlife of South Georgia by Paul Goldstein
A British photographer has captured the majesty of the wildlife inhabitants of South Georgia.
Paul Goldstein, a tour guide for Exodus, shot these impressive images last month on the remote and inhospitable island in southern Atlantic Ocean.
South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands is a British overseas territory 964 miles (1551km) east of the Falkland Islands.
Guiding an exclusive charter, Wimbledon-based Paul was able to record what he describes as "a wildlife nirvana".
Highlights include images of adorable elephant seal pups as well as juvenile king penguins caught in the rain.
"No-one arrives here by accident", Paul says "not only is it a long way from anywhere, it is also lashed by some of the most 'lively' seas in the world. However, when you bear in mind the incredible legacy of Shackleton and many other heroic explorers as well as the whaling history, it is fascinating historically.
"It is also very beautiful with huge tumbling glaciers as well as towering mountains. But it is the wildlife that brings me and other back. Six million King Penguins cannot be wrong and those young elephant seals (weeners) are very endearing until they get older and fall out of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down."
"A hundred people, probably one million pictures and one or two grown-up waves! Remarkable, the best places are always the hardest to get to."
South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands consists of South Georgia and a chain of smaller islands, known as the South Sandwich Islands. South Georgia is 104 miles (167.4 km) long and 0.9 to 23.0...

Redpoll (left) and juvenile siskin fighting
Fighting birds, Northumberland, Britain - 25 Jun 2013
The feathers really flew when these colourful birds decided to flex their muscles. The battling birds were captured by 18-year-old, self-taught wildlife photographer Will Nicholls in Northumberland. The sparring saw two male redpolls engage with beak and claw as their rumpus took to the air, while two juvenile siskins tried out their fighting skills on one another. It was then all change as one of the young siskins felt brave enough to take on one of the redpolls. And with their bright plumage it certainly proved to be something of a colourful display. Siskins are notable for the distinctive yellow stripes on their black wings, while redpolls, as their name suggests, have beautiful red markings.

Fighting birds, Northumberland, Britain - 25 Jun 2013
The feathers really flew when these colourful birds decided to flex their muscles. The battling birds were captured by 18-year-old, self-taught wildlife photographer Will Nicholls in Northumberland. The sparring saw two male redpolls engage with beak and claw as their rumpus took to the air, while two juvenile siskins tried out their fighting skills on one another. It was then all change as one of the young siskins felt brave enough to take on one of the redpolls. And with their bright plumage it certainly proved to be something of a colourful display. Siskins are notable for the distinctive yellow stripes on their black wings, while redpolls, as their name suggests, have beautiful red markings.

Haunting Image Gets Photography Contest Seal Of Approval
A photographer's haunting shot of a seal floating amongst a kelp forest has been selected as the winning image in a global competition.
Named best overall phot, the shot was taken by American Kyle McBurnie and shows the harbor seal peering through a kelp forest near San Diego in America.
Meanwhle, a British photographer's stunning shot of a spiky lionfish swimming after a shoal of fish was also one of the winning photographs from the University of Miami's annual Underwater Photography contest.
The colourful purple and orange creature can be seen swimming on a wreck in the spectacular snap by Alex Tattersall, who lives in Bournemouth, Dorset, which won first place in the wide-angle category of the
From small shrimps to huge hammerheads, the competition held by the Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science attracted more than 700 entries from across the world.
The remarkable pictures reveal a hidden world of colourful creatures of all shapes and sizes living deep beneath our oceans.
"I took the photo when I was diving on a big wreck of a Second World War ship in the Red Sea in Egypt," said Alex, who has been taking underwater pictures for five years.
"I was about 20 metres down under the sea and took lots of shots but this was the one that came out the best.
"I love taking underwater pictures as it is very peaceful and you have access to a hidden world which only a small minority of people gets to see."
A panel of experts judged the photos, which came from 23 countries and awards were given in three categories, macro, fish or marine animal portrait and wide angle.
A pretty pink anemone shrimp snapped by American Beth Watson grabbed first place in the macro section.
Other winning pictures include an emperor shrimp photograp...

Two juvenile otters (approx 18 months old) playfighting.

Not usually spotted during daylight hours these juvenile otters make a spectacle of themselves as they play-fight in a river in Norfolk.
Spotted by British wildlife photographer Luke Massey after their screeching and splashing caught his attention.
Luke said: "Otters are one of the most difficult species I have ever tried to photograph, not only being hard to see they are incredibly shy so once spotted you have to be very stealthy."
He believes the otters were raised on the river and had recently been pushed out of their den by their mother as she may have mated again or given birth to cubs.
"The otters were chasing each other along the banks then jumping in to the water to continue play-fighting, it was really amusing to watch."
Over the past 30 years otters have fought their way back from extinction after they were nearly wiped out by pesticides and a dwindling food supply.
Now after one of nature's most remarkable comebacks, they are spotted in every English county.

The juvenile hummingbird seemed more than happy to be around humans when it perched on 22-year-old Abby's hand to sup sugar water.
Erin Neese took the amazing shots while hanging around with friends in her backyard in Newark, Ohio.
She explains: "It was warm outside and we were around the house most of the day. This baby hummingbird would perch on the porch railing and didn't seem bothered by having people walk by him.
"He tired quickly and was pretty happy when he learned that he could get food (sugar water) from us! It was an amazing thing to be able to feed the little guy!"

Weak At the Knees
The youthful appearance of these Hollywood hotties defies their real age.
But while their bodies might be toned and their faces line free, there's one unexpected body part that gives the game away - saggy knees.
These knee wrinkles - or 'kninkles as they have been dubbed - blight the otherwise perfect pins of a host of lovely ladies.
And they prove that even best preserved star can't avoid that dreaded crinkling, pouching and sagging of the knee area.

Juvenile Gentoo penguin demands food by flapping arms
Don't Get In A Flap: Baby Penguin Demands Food
A penguin got in a real flap when it demanded food from its mother.
Or maybe it had forgot it was a penguin and was trying to fly?
The Gentoo juvenile frantically waved its wings and cried out when hunger struck.
At one point it looked as if it was flexing its tiny arms in a fit of anger.
Photographer and Exodus travel tour guide Paul Goldstein captured the peckish penguin on the Antarctic peninsula.
He explains: "The youngster may have looked like it was showing off but in fact it is actually asking its mother to feed it.
"The mother will regurgitate food for its offspring and the small one must have wanted to not-so-subtly let her know it was hungry."
The adult penguin will catch fish, krill or squid and digest it or hold it in for a while. When it is ready, it will regurgitate the food into its beak, before placing the food into the baby penguin's mouth.
Gentoos breed on many sub-Antarctic islands, including the Falkland Islands, South Georgia and, like these examples, the Antarctic Peninsula. The total breeding population is estimated to be over 300,000 pairs.

The adult penguin will catch fish, krill or squid and digest it or hold it in for a while. When it is ready, it will regurgitate the food into its beak, before placing the food into the baby penguin's mouth.
Gentoos breed on many sub-Antarctic islands, including the Falkland Islands, South Georgia and, like these examples, the Antarctic Peninsula. The total breeding population is estimated to be over 300,000 pairs.

Juvenile Gentoo penguin demands food by flapping arms
Don't Get In A Flap: Baby Penguin Demands Food
A penguin got in a real flap when it demanded food from its mother.
Or maybe it had forgot it was a penguin and was trying to fly?
The Gentoo juvenile frantically waved its wings and cried out when hunger struck.
At one point it looked as if it was flexing its tiny arms in a fit of anger.
Photographer and Exodus travel tour guide Paul Goldstein captured the peckish penguin on the Antarctic peninsula.

Japanese snow monkeys, Jigokudani, Nagano, Japan - Dec 2011

Monkeying Around: Japanese Snow Monkeys
If this young monkey's reaction to slipping into a warm bath is anything to go by, these primates really are like humans.
The juvenile Japanese snow monkey was photographed enjoying the famous hot springs at Jigokudani monkey park in Nagano.
Its expressions appear to show sheer bliss as it bathes in the warming waters.
Photographer Ben Torode also captured delightful scenes of grooming and social interaction among the group of Japanese macaques, who are drawn to the welcoming waterhole during the winter.
The group descend from the steep cliffs and forest to sit in the warm waters of the onsen (hotsprings), before returning to the security of the forests in the evenings.
Ben, 35, from Adelaide took up photography after relocating to Tokyo and being "moved by the blooming cherry blossoms here".
He explains: "It seemed the little monkey was just starting to enjoy some time away from its mother, but would often run out of the bath to check where she was. Although in the images it looks like it is in pure heaven as it slips into the bath, although its true joy is the seed it has hidden in its mouth.
"My favourite images would have to be the ones that show intense preening because it reveals how many traits these monkeys share with humans.
"Their hands are extremely delicate and dextrous, they are very social and they are capable of intense concentration. In fact Japanese macaques spend 27.9% of their waking hours engaged in social grooming, as opposed to just 23.5% feeding.
"While you shoot these monkeys, you are not supposed to stare at them too long with your naked eyes because they take it as a sign of aggression, but they don't mind lenses.
"The young ones, however, are much more inquisitive about everything, including the humans."
